Hi there!

This month, we are celebrating our planet because of Earth Day. Earth Day is a great reminder of how important it is to work towards preserving our planet everyday. In honor of Earth Day, we are featuring an article discussing the environmental impacts of food waste. 

Looking forward to next month, our team will be busy on the conference circuit. We look forward to hopefully seeing some of you at the 2017 Food Recovery Forum in New Orleans May 8-11 (where Ricky Ashenfelter, Spoiler Alert CEO, will be speaking about Using Data and Technhology to Drive Organics Waste Reduction), and the Sustainable Brands Conference in Detroit at the end of the month.
