Every Bite is a nation-wide four week programme, designed to help households become more food resourceful, with a goal of reducing food waste across Aotearoa. Join Us for Every Bite Kaitaia: Food Appreciation Movement – at Te Ahu Kitchens. By joining us, you'll gain practical tools, resources, and motivation to monitor and minimise your food waste—while also learning innovative cooking and food prep techniques to make your kai go further and save money. Less waste, more savings, and delicious results!
