JUST ONE WEEK LEFT UNTIL #EATSMARTCHALLENGE STARTS!
Get inspired and re-imagine the way you eat and think about food!
#EatSmartChallenge kicks off in almost a week, on April 8th!
We invite each and everyone to “accept the challenge” towards a sustainable week, where we can re-imagine and rethink how we consume food! You can share your ways of sustainable lifestyle on your social channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) through relevant photos, videos and quotes accompanied by the hashtags #eatsmartchallenge #7daychallenge #sustainableliving #foodfortomorrow #commonfood
It is important to challenge your peers to follow up with more sustainable content!
The event will culminate with a live #EatSmart Pop Up Brunch at the Municipal Market of Kypseli, where ambassadors and participants will meet at at an exclusive pop-up brunch for a good cause in a sustainable direction, where food will be presented from the production point to the ways of packaging. #EatSmart Pop Up brunch will be backed up with DIY workshops on sustainable food making and live cooking actions!
Now, is a good time to start planning and preparing for the week. What could the challenges mean for you, in your life, in your town, in your country? Why not sit down for lunch with others joining Eat Smart and talk about how you interpret the challenges. Thinking creatively will make it more fun!
