$4.6 million to fight food waste in NSW
The Minns Labor Government is helping businesses and food rescue organisations tackle food waste with $4.6 million in new grants to save more edible food from landfill.
The funding has been awarded to organisations that can make the most impact to reduce the 1.7 million tonnes of food that is wasted each year in NSW. By reducing food waste, we can support people facing food insecurity while reducing our greenhouse gas emissions from landfill.
Under the first round of the new Food Rescue Grants, nearly $3 million has been given to support 20 charities and community organisations to rescue more surplus or donated food and deliver it to people in need across NSW.
