STUDENTS making smoothies by pedal power are helping to spin the message about cutting food waste.
Belville Community Garden’s team were at the West College Scotland’s Finnart Street campus to demonstrate their work with the help from the smoothie bike.
Volunteers John Feherty and Jane Short, who both used to go to the college, jumped on to get the message out there about the need to go green.
John, aged 26, from Greenock said: “I love being a volunteer at Belville Street. It is such a great project and I have learned so much. I love planting and doing the work in the open air.
“It is just a brilliant place to be.”
They were joined by Belville environmental officers Sally Clough and Laura Reilly.
They were encouraging students to try pedalling the bike to make the smoothies.
Belville Community Garden is also using Climate Change Fund cash to collect information on the amount of food waste that can be saved through their project.
