Upcycling Food Waste: What Does The Future Hold?

Past Event

Monday June 24, 2024 1:00 am - 2:00 am EST

Coming up on June 24—National Upcycling Day—join ReFED, Upcycled Food Association, and Where Food Comes From for a special webinar about the future of upcycling. How do we build on the recent success of this food waste solution? What challenges remain in expanding its viability? And how do we get more people to be part of the upcycling revolution?

Upcycling food reduces food waste by creating high quality, nutritious products out of the nutrients that slip through the cracks of our food system. And while upcycling is an ancient tradition based on elevating all food to its highest and best use, in recent years it's become a major focus of the food waste movement with attention from businesses, the media, and consumers. So... what next?
