I believe that the best place for me to start is with the soil. My action plan is to improve my family’s home composting system by building an outside wooden bin for compost storage and an indoor vermicomposting and worm tea system. I see this is a great opportunity to make rich compost for our expanded vegetable, herb and flower garden and rely less on buying compost from elsewhere. This is a good step towards creating more of a closed-loop system at my house. I am looking forward to educating and supporting my family through this investigation into food waste and becoming more involved with projects such as gleaning in my home state of Maine. For this project I will be looking at how to source local materials, set up simple systems and evaluate how as a family we can reduce our waste and take less trips to the dump.
