New Services Bring Overgrown Produce to Market

Join us as we listen to a story in simplified Japanese about food vendors that have begun selling overgrown and misshapen vegetables that do not conform to market standards. Their efforts are part of a growing call to action against food loss and waste. We also learn about the distribution and sales of vegetables and fruits in Japan, and spotlight initiatives to reduce the amount of discarded food.
