We are on a mission to decrease food insecurity for college students and curb food waste in our communities. Where did the idea begin? We noticed food insecurity among students on Brigham Young University's campus. We define food insecurity as lacking access to affordable, nutritious food. By carrying out our own research and collaborating with experts, we discovered that approximately 40% of college students are considered food insecure compared to 11% of the general population. We offer affordable lunch bowls made with locally-sourced, plant-based ingredients, conveniently located in pick-up locations on college campuses for college students, faculty, and staff. Reducing food waste is also part of our overall vision. Utahns waste about 600,000 tons of food every year. To save food from the landfills and redirect it to hungry students, we source our food from community gardens, neighborhood gleaning efforts, and local food redistribution organizations.
