The Corner Store Network

Take a peep into our micro preservation hub where we tackle urban food waste, build engaged communities and work to reduce food insecurity... #preservingthefuture

Great vibe today @FedSquare for the second day of the Little Food Festival. After running out of jar supplies yesterday due to high demand… thanks to @cornerstoreCSN, @dilliciousau and @SandroDemaio for the overnight resupply rescue today @KarenMarangio @MonashEducation

#Recyclable, #biodegradable, #compostable to name a few. You've seen the labels, but what do they really mean + are any of them actually doing more good than harm? We find out the best, the worst + the most environmentally sound way to dispose of each. cornerstorenetwork.org.au/updates/packag…

Wanting to give an affordable gift that puts #people and #planet first? Look no further than our #ethical and #environmental gift guide. From direct trade #coffee, to #zerowaste preserves, there's something for every budget. cornerstorenetwork.org.au/updates/afford…

FIVE YEAR UPDATE 🍋 Since its conception in 2017, our preserving program has saved a whopping 30 tonne of food from landfill or rotting on the ground. That's a whole lotta yummy preserves transforming food from going to waste. Thanks to all who've donated and volunteered.

Historically, #sustainable living has been the goal of the #ecoconscious movement, but with #climatechange affecting our daily lives & the planet rapidly heating, its no longer enough. That's why we've embraced a new approach - you can learn all about it; cornerstorenetwork.org.au/updates/why-we…

@sallyrugg Once you find the machine @sallyrugg, we've got the beans 🙂

Hello, friends. I’m seeking recommendations for a coffee machine that grinds beans + turns them into coffee shots internally… a kind of “press two buttons” situation, with beans and not pods. Any intel?

It's the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples – and what better way to mark the occasion than to highlight the work of Permatil Global. Head to permatilglobal.org to find out more. #permaculture #disruptchangeconnect

We are finalists in this year's Premier's Sustainability Awards for our work towards providing food, economic and environmental justice to communities in Australia and #TimorLeste. Read about all our fellow finalists: sustainability.vic.gov.au/psa-2022-final… #PSAwards22 #preservingthefuture

First cup of @cornerstorecsn with Sunday breakfast @traceyezard - yum! #alifeofpurpose #bravo #breakfast #coffee #letsgo

I came home from a spell of travel for work recently to find a lovely thank you gift from @traceyezard – a lovely gesture from a @GameChangersPC guest that also highlighted her contribution to the social enterprise of @cornerstorecsn #alifeofpurpose #character

+ Yesterday I received a surprise package in the mail. Coffee and delicious jam from cornerstorenetwork.org.au as a gift from the amazingly kind soul @traceyezard. Today, I made the coffee and had the jam on Turkish toast for breakfast. Delicious 😋. Grazie 🙏 Tracey. #Gratitude

Great moment for Corner Store Network Timor-Leste! This is President @JoseRamosHorta1 browsing local products whilst speaking to Joana about the preserving program at an expo in Dili, #TimorLeste. #preservingthefuture #thisisfoodjustice

We've just spent 2 weeks in #TimorLeste checking in on the local #foodpreservation & #regenerativeagriculture hubs, reconnecting face-to-face with local teams & workshopping the next few years. Read all about the trip & see just how far the hubs have come. cornerstorenetwork.org.au/updates/timor-…

An underrated but powerful way to fight hunger is to cut food loss & waste. Food loss alone, occurring after harvest and before retail, is worth $400 billion yearly. If we cut FLW by half, there'd be enough supply of fruits and veggies to meet the needs of a world population.

War is tipping a fragile world towards mass hunger. Fixing that is everyone’s business. Our latest cover story explains how the calamity can be minimised econ.trib.al/Cb8VLaa

33% of all food produced globally is lost or wasted every year. On this international @_StopFoodWaste_ Day, see how initiatives we support like @permaguidebook and @cornerstoreCSN are taking practical steps to tackle food waste and improve food sovereignty.

Looking forward to hearing from you. We've got a fair bit of time on our hands now!

Anyway, we'd love to know how you'll compensate us. In non-covid times we travel regularly to Timor, & the new @Qantas service was exciting. But we will probably stick to @AirnorthAUS after this as we're staring down the barrel of a wasted trip, after 2 difficult years for all.
