More than one-third of the food produced in the US is never eaten.

Most gets thrown in the trash, accounting for nearly a quarter of landfilled material from municipal sources.

 

Pedal Possum offers an eco-friendly alternative to the landfill:

Composting!

Sustainable

Composting is the process of using natural processes to recycle organic matter into a valuable soil amendment called compost.

It's far better for the environment than dumping food waste in a landfill or burning it, plus the finished compost is useful for growing new food!
