This subpage contains a plethora of information to learn the language and the important role that food waste management plays in the FL school system. According to the USDA, K-12 schools have a special role in not only reducing, recovering, and recycling food waste on their premises, but also in educating the next generation about recovering wholesome, excess food for donation. And serve as an important conduit for reducing food to conserve nature’s resources and natural resources in food production. The information on this page is intended to provide FL specific information to FL schools (K-12).
