School Food Recovery Handbook

School Food Recovery Handbook

NRCM is proud to have created the nation’s first food recovery hierarchy tailored specifically for schools. Our handbook describes how food waste is shaped by the school environment and provides specific actions schools can take to reduce food waste. This is the first comprehensive guide for Maine schools that identifies the serious problems with wasting food and offers solutions, explaining step-by-step how to take action, how to work as a successful team, and how to involve others in the school. By referring to NRCM’s School Food Recovery Hierarchy Framework, and using our “How-to” guides, you’ll be well on your way to reducing food waste in your school.
