Imperfect Foods’ Food Waste Week Is Happening This Week in LA

Imperfect Foods, a company that offers "imperfect" produce and groceries, is hosting Food Waste Week in Los Angeles in collaboration with various restaurants. The event aims to raise awareness about food waste and support the Hollywood Food Coalition, a non-profit organization that provides food to those in need. Participating restaurants are creating special dishes using Imperfect Foods' produce, with a portion of the sales going towards the Coalition.

The goal of Food Waste Week is to save 1,000 pounds of food from being wasted in one week. In addition to the restaurant collaboration, Imperfect Foods is hosting daily events at The Rose Room in Venice, including cooking demos and workshops. Vegan restaurants like Cafe Gratitude, Plant Food + Wine, and The Butcher's Daughter are among the participants, offering dishes using Imperfect Foods' ingredients. JuneShine, a popular hard kombucha company, is also joining the initiative. For more information and a full calendar of events, visit ImperfectFoods.com.
