Learn how to eat sustainably and lower your carbon footprint

It’s a chance to learn how to reduce your carbon footprint and enjoy tasty, sustainable food options.

Stratford District Secondary School’s Eco-Club is hosting “Sustainable Bites” April 8 from 7 to 9 p.m., in partnership with The Local and Climate Momentum.

The Local Community Food Centre is the venue, with three different presenters on site.

Club Advisor Christine Ritsma said this is the first time the club has run something of this size and hopes it will showcase ways to eat sustainably.

“It’s a way for people to sort of talk about, share recipes, maybe ideas about how they can be smarter about eating,” Ritsma said.

“And as we all know, if you do it locally and support our local farmers and our local audience, you’re going to get more results that way.”

Ritsma said guests are asked to reserve a spot online and make a donation at the door.
