In todays episode we speak with Claire Schlemme, the founder of Renewal Mill. A company up cycling fibrous byproducts from food manufacturing into high value ingredients. Renewal Mill supports the circular economy by diverting food from landfill and ensuring all calories and nutrients dont go to waste but get a second life as a new food ingredient for consumption. The company focuses on flour alternatives as their main product, derived from Okara and soy, banana, oats, corn and pineapples, among others. The problem: In the US along, approximately 30-40% of the food supply is wasted - worth billions of dollars of wasted value, and all the water, fertilizer, land use, and labor involved in producing that. Producing methane which is 28X more warming impact than carbon dioxide - in some calculations food waste is one of the largest material found in landfill and municipal waste streams. Economic Research Service of the US - around 13.5% of American are food insecure - meaning they dont have reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable nutritious food. The solution: Renewal mill extends the life of these ingredients, still rich in nutrients, to create new healthy ingredients suitable for consumption and existing baking processes. Whether thats at home or industrial baking, these products extend the life, and help divert food waste going to landfill. This conversation dives into our pursuit for real impact, solving multiple problems within one solution family, the realities of up cycling food, and how taking one step towards an idea brings about plentiful new opportunities!
