The Science of Re-purposing Food Waste

Gutsy Matters

While there are many products available, including our hemp produce bags, and consumer education for reducing food waste at the household level, the second largest area of food waste is the food that\'s grown and never leaves the farm! So while we can certainly implement many practical solutions at the household level we still have a big problem that needs to be solved on a larger scale. This conversation with Dr Polly Bury gives us hope that the solution may be closer than we think and that there is great interest fast tracking the possibilities of re-purposing excess food or even parts of plants that have never been considered food, like pineapple skins and sweet potato leaves and vines.
