Description
We aim to reduce waste, improve the planet, nourish people, and boost bottom lines by gleaning excess and underused resources and transforming them into nutritious, profitable materials with our innovative technology. Our revolutionary RENU™ Drying & Milling System powderizes fresh produce and other raw materials in a single step without added heat or nutrient degradation—in seconds! The GTF pillars include:
Sustainability - We make food production and processing more eco-friendly.
More than 1/3 of food ends up rotting in landfills, creating 3 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions every year! In fact, reducing food waste is considered the single greatest solution to climate change. GTF upcycles excess foods and other plant materials, diverting them from the landfill. We enable farmers and food processors to use their resources more efficiently while dramatically reducing our collective carbon footprint.
Technology - We believe technology is integral to our vision.
Our RENU Drying & Milling System simultaneously micronizes and extracts moisture from produce and plant material in seconds, while retaining its nutrient profile. Our technology offers a world of possibilities for improving sustainability, boosting business, and nourishing people.
Connection - Our network of connections enables successful business opportunities.
We connect food producers and processors to companies interested in GTF-milled powder. These companies include upcycled food brands, vitamins and nutraceuticals, ingredient brokers, industrial applications, and many more. GTF is integrally involved, opening doors for customers on both sides of the equation.
Giving - At the heart of our work is a desire for worldwide food equity.
Up to 828 million people are hungry while uneaten food rots in landfills. Our initial motivation for starting GTF was to reallocate valuable resources and feed hungry people. To that end, we’ve created our 501c3, Gleaning the Fields. We partner with NGOs and other charities to get our GTF-milled powders directly to the people who need them most, and we donate off our top line to fund this work.
