First Dive

This weekend was my very first dumpster dive in Wilmington, NC!

Here’s a list of the loot:

  • 2 large carrots
  • 3 large and 2 small cucumbers
  • A TON of kale and chard and a few random bits of other hearty leafy greens
  • 1 large head of leaf lettuce
  • 1 head of iceburg lettuce
  • 1 package of that Live Lettuce stuff with the roots (why not just grow your own?)
  • 1 eggplant (Janae’s spectacular find)
  • 2 gala apples
  • 1 bunch of celery
  • 2 packages of baby red potatoes
  • 1 large green bell pepper
  • several bags of bean sprouts (these may not be any good, haven’t investigated yet)

Oh, and Janae found a huge potted poinsettia and couldn’t leave without it, but it was pretty messed up so we ended up dumping it and repurposing the pot as a trashcan.
