Get a compost bin or worm farm for your fresh food kitchen waste and use this to fertilise your garden.

You can make your own stock by using leftover beef and lamb, bones and vegetables.

If you’ve made too much for dinner, don’t throw out your leftover beef or lamb.

Save the left over cooking juices from roast meat to make gravy to freeze for another time.

Even with the best of intentions, it’s not always possible to plan your food needs exactly. Use your freezer to preserve foods you are unable to consume before the expiration dates.

Fresh herbs are an easy way to make your meals more interesting and add more flavour.
