Water Saving Tips in the Kitchen

• When washing dishes by hand, don’t let the water run while rinsing. Fill one sink with wash water and the other with rinse water
• Use the garbage disposal sparingly. Compost instead and save gallons every time
• Keep a pitcher of water in the refrigerator instead of running the tap for cold drinks, so that every drop goes down you, not the drain
• Wash your produce in the sink or a pan that is partially filled with water instead of running water from the tap
• Collect the water you use for rinsing produce and reuse it to water houseplants
• Designate one glass for your drinking water each day. This will cut down on the number of times you run your dishwasher
• Soak your pots and pans instead of letting the water run while you scrape them clean
• Cut back on rinsing if your dishwasher is new. Newer models clean more thoroughly than older ones
• Cook food in as little water as possible. This will also retain more of the nutrients
• Select the proper size pans for cooking. Large pans require more cooking water than may be necessary
• If you accidentally drop ice cubes when filling your glass from the freezer, don’t throw them in the sink. Drop them in a houseplant instead
• Throw trimmings and peelings from fruits and vegetables into your yard for compost to avoid using the garbage disposal
