Food Recovery Network

2014

Waste reduction is one of the University's most urgent sustainability goals. One of the main culprits of waste on campus is the dining halls and Food Recovery Network (FRN) aims to do something about it. FRN diverts leftover food from UM Dining Halls to local food banks. They are currently successfully running this effort in two campus dining halls; with PBSIF funding that will support the purchase of freezers, trays and coolers, FRN will able to expand the program to all campus dining halls by June 2015. The FRN team includes: Hannah Gingerich; PiTE, Joseph Letner, Biomedical Engineering, and Taylor Flowers, SAC/ Communications.
