This Week at Anabel’s (3/22)
Hi friends!
As we are heading into the middle of the semester, Anabel’s Grocery is here with you every step of the way! Check out the produce, event, and food justice blog we have on deck this week 😋
Food Justice Corner!
Food for Thought: How Composing Saves Our Environment One Banana Peel at a Time
Nearly 40% of all food in America is wasted (Feeding America). Food waste happens at every avenue in our food cycle: in production, processing, distribution, sale, and in your own kitchens. At the end of food’s life, what we do with spoiled or rotten food that can’t be consumed can make a big difference in the health of our environment.

Keeping Up with AEM 3385!
This week we are continuing our conversation in agroecology as well as discussing our personal connections with food in small group discussions.
In our groups, we discussed our use of food as a means of connecting with our communities and cultures as well as how aware we are of how our food is produced. We all had varying degrees of knowledge and perspectives which made these conservations super insightful!
Food Sovereign-Tea Event
This April, Anabel’s Grocery is teaming up with the Cornell Botantical Gardens and Cornell Global Tea Club to enjoy some food and tea, and to discuss food sovereignty and sustainability topics! The event will be on April 15th at 1:30 PM and will be held at the Nevins Welcome Center!
