**The practice of foraging** in garbage that has been put out on the street in dumpsters, garbage cans, etc., for discarded items that may still be **valuable, useful, or fixable.** ![dividerblue.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2H3Lgvc1aWLMBBeokhh3AkjrLpjDqsB49SqVYB7nXAy/dividerblue.png)

Why do I Dumpster Dive?

* Bring awareness on how much food is wasted with our current system! * Save the abundance of food that is wasted and share it with my network! * Minimizing costs enabling me to Power Up 100%! * Great regular exercise and good karma... ;) ![dividerblue.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2H3Lgvc1aWLMBBeokhh3AkjrLpjDqsB49SqVYB7nXAy/dividerblue.png)

Thursdays Weekly Meet-ups:

**We meet up on Thursdays** in the middle of the city to share the food we've saved during the week. It's a great way to meet, connect and support each other. We meet between 6-7 pm at the same time as the **decentralized farmers market that I've initiated!** ![dividerblue.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2H3Lgvc1aWLMBBeokhh3AkjrLpjDqsB49SqVYB7nXAy/dividerblue.png) **I regularly invite friends** over to share the abundance of food, been doing it for many years but now I also of course make sure to introduce them to the **Steem blockchain! ;)** ![dividerblue.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2H3Lgvc1aWLMBBeokhh3AkjrLpjDqsB49SqVYB7nXAy/dividerblue.png) ___
