Food Collection in Wet Market
Food Collection is an important part of our culture of promoting food upcycling. We will collect the remaining fruits, vegetables and bread at Sham Shui Po wet markets (Pei Ho Street and Po On Road) on weekdays. We will also look for more businesses to support us, including discounts and food donations.
