(6) Education
Education plays a major role in changing attitude and in supporting those individuals who want to make a difference. Larder Bytes brings the ready steady cook concept into the home demonstrating clearly how home-made meals are prepared.
As well as being fun it also supports the waste reduction objectives by reducing the volume of food wasted through poor preparation.
For education to be effective Larder Bytes introduces a new and interesting method providing a relationship with food through the use of technology. Technology allows all users to get what they want from the network and to do it at their own pace and in the comfort of their own homes.
Through dynamically linking producers and their products with the consumer the technology provides in depth education on the seasonal availability of local produce allowing everyone to prioritize their purchasing to favour local in-season produce.
