Do Good Foods is creating a more sustainable food system at scale that combats climate change with urgency and action. Founded by the Kamine Family, Do Good Foods uses technologically advanced infrastructure to reduce food waste by collecting grocery surplus that would otherwise go to landfills (after human donations occur), converts it to animal feed, and uses it to create carbon-reduced, delicious food that consumers can purchase at their local supermarket.

This new way of upcycling surplus grocery food empowers consumers to be a part of the solution to fight food waste and combat climate change with their everyday purchases.
