The Plastic Boot Market and Masterclass

Overview

This month, Youth Food Movement Melbourne is out to help locals cut the crap from their lives, with a market and masterclass dedicated to minimising plastic waste.

Head to the Community Hub at The Dock, on Saturday, August 25, to join fellow waste warriors honing those planet-friendly lifestyles. To fuel your day, there'll be savoury eats from Brunswick non-profit Home One, along with cosy serves of mulled wine from Melbourne's own sustainable wine slingers, Rewine.

You'll spy YFM's thought-provoking art installation Plastic Extinction, and have the chance to chat with a swag of experts, picking up tips and tricks to slash your own plastic consumption.

Plus, zero-waste specialist and author of Waste Not, Erin Rhoads will host the day's information-packed masterclass, sharing everything you need to know about reducing food plastic waste in your everyday life.
