We're working together to pull the emergency brake on climate change

Food waste makes up 24% of solid waste in US landfills—we're changing that.

Our mission is to make sure that edible, surplus food gets eaten by people (not landfills) and to lay the groundwork for lasting, long-term solutions to food waste.

Every Bit Counts

We are organizing six major Metro Detroit cities to help them rescue surplus food, prevent food waste, and practice organics recycling.

Upcycling Kitchens

At our Upcycling Kitchens, chefs turn surplus ingredients into delicious, nutritious, and dignified meals for people who ask—no proof of need required.
