To celebrate Earth Day 2015, Sustainable America’s I Value Food campaign and CompoKeeper are teaming up to host an Instagram photo contest. We want to see all of the creative ways our food-waste savvy followers are reinvigorating those once-forgotten leftovers, repurposing dinner scraps and keeping food out of the landfill.
The winner will receive a CompoKeeper Kitchen Compost Bin ($100 value), a clean, easy and odor-free way to collect food scraps in the kitchen until they’re ready for composting.
How to Enter:
1. Follow @IValueFood and @CompoKeeper on Instagram.
2. Snap an image of your favorite way to reduce food waste.
3. Upload it to Instagram tagging @IValueFood and @Compokeeper using the hashtag #IValueFood. Explain your tip in the comment.
Deadline for entries is April 26, 2015 at 11:59 pm EST. U.S. residents only. There is no limit on the number of submissions, so we invite you to share more than one tip while the contest is open. At the conclusion of the contest, Sustainable America and CompoKeeper will vote to determine the winner. We will be looking for the most creative and unique way to reduce food waste as well as one that others can easily adopt. The winner will be announced the week of April 27 on Instagram.
Whether it’s a way to shop smarter, a trick to get your kids to clear their plates, or a composting technique you’ve been trying out, we want to see it! If you need some inspiration, visit ivaluefood.com to help you get started.
