Call Morrisonsisons to set-up in store recycling facilities for TetraPaks.

Tonnes of edible food gets thrown away each day …
…2.9 million potatoes
…1 million bananas
…2.1 million carrots
So what does this mean for you and your household? Plan your meals and shopping. Choose to buy what food you need. And only cook the food that you know will get eaten.
Work-out how much your family eats each meal. Don't over cook and thereby waste food. Weigh or measure your ingredients. For example an average-sized serving of rice weighs 75g (dry).

Have you ever thought of growing your own vegetables?🌱Did you know, Crowborough Town Council has three allotment sites across the town?
Now is the perfect time of year to get growing, so if you live in the parish and you’ve been thinking of having an allotment, why not give our allotment team a call on 01892 652 907 or message us here.
There is currently a waiting list for our Pilmer and Herne allotment sites but plots are currently available at Owlsbury.
Allotments are not only a great space to grow your own, but they’re also an opportunity to meet like-minded people, they help to keep you fit, they're good for the environment and are a haven for wildlife!
Plus, this year we are also running an allotment competition across the three council run sites, so it’s a great time to get involved 😊
