Plan before you shop! Know what you need, make a list and try to avoid impulse buys.
Buy loose produce instead of packaged and buy grains, nuts and spices from bulk bins.
When unpacking groceries, move older products to the front and place newer items in the back of the fridge/freezer/pantry.
Tips to Reduce Food Waste During the Holidays
Reminder: Holiday lights require special handling. They should not be placed in your trash or recycling carts. You may drop them off at our Buellton yard located at 97 Commerce Drive or in Santa Maria at 1850 West Betteravia Road.
Place leaves and other green waste inside your green waste cart to be composted. Other green waste includes: grass clippings, sticks, small branches, wood (untreated, not painted) and tree trimmings.
