About the Program
Supported by the NSW Environment Protection Authority, this project aims to create a food waste reduction model that can be replicated across Australia’s wine regions. The program highlights innovative strategies already used by Hunter Valley businesses and encourages greater collaboration and knowledge-sharing.

This initiative supports a local network where businesses work together to reach shared sustainability goals.

 

Support
The program is backed by industry associations, local councils, and sustainability leaders, including the Hunter Valley Wine & Tourism Association, Cessnock Council, and Loop Organics. Together, we’ll co-design solutions to drive long-lasting change.
