Freeganism 101 and Trash Tour

Details

So we have a better idea of who is coming for what, we're separating the meeting from the 101 and trash tour. Feel free to come to both!

At 9pm, we end our organizational meeting (see previous event), and have a brief introductory discussion about freeganism. Newcomers are always welcome and encouraged to attend our full meeting, but if you just want an introduction to freeganism, you can come just for the Freeganism 101 discussion.

After, we will explore the area’s wasted food and other goods. We give advice on how to salvage these goods and comment on the reasons for such waste. Since we will be gathering the ingredients for the freegan feast on Oct 18 (see next event-- and please come!!), anyone not gathering food just for individual use will be asked to step back and only take stuff that is not needed to prepare the communal feast.

The 101 session is NOT open to media, but media, student researchers, etc. may come to the trash tour (9:30, email us to find out where), with prior permission.
