Waste isn’t waste unless you waste it ♻️ #growingalmonds #ad With my DIYs and upcycling projects I always save my scraps and off-cuts to use for other projects, so I will absolutely geek out over any kind of large scale upcycling/reuse/recycling initiative. Learning more about Growing Almonds from California almond farmers definitely did not disappoint. From researching alternative uses for the hulls and shells almonds grow in (like coffee replacements and additives to extend the lifecycle of recycled plastics) to finding ways to reduce environmental impacts like water use while increasing yields, #almonds are definitely becoming my favorite plant-based protein source.
