Join us for a delicious pizza dinner at PizzaPlex.

Over dinner, we’ll talk about the innovative ways local businesses and nonprofits are keeping food out of landfills and how you can do your part at home.  

We’ll be serving wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, salad and a special side—all crafted by PizzaPlex and Make Food Not Waste chefs using healthy ingredients that too often go to the landfill. Wine and non-alcoholic drinks will be provided and, of course, dessert.

Get your tickets!
