The Zero Waste Family Meal was held on the final day of the conference and was a great way to celebrate with those we had learned with throughout the weekend.

All of the food waste produced at the conference was recycled into new food. At first glance, it may seem somewhat disgusting. But eating trash turned out to be one of the more glamorous experiences of my life.

The food seemed scarce at first, but as time went on I was overwhelmed with the amount of food being served. Alcohol flowed freely and everyone was deeply engaged in joyous banter.

I couldn’t think of a better way to end the conference and I hope this is an event that is duplicated in the future. It just goes to show, one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.
