How It Works:

The FoodCycler is a small appliance that dehydrates and grinds food waste, reducing its volume by up to 90% within hours.

The FoodCycler eliminates odors and makes it easy to divert food waste from the landfill, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and extending the life of our waste management system.

Benefits to the Community

Reduces Waste: Cuts down on household garbage, minimizing landfill use.

Eco-Friendly: Lowers carbon emissions from improper organic waste breakdown.

Convenient: Compact, odor-free, and easy to use at home.

Creates Soil Amendment: The by-product can be used in gardens as a fertilizer or added to any composting system.

The Town is looking for a minimum of 50 residents interested in participating in this pilot project.

If approved, participants would be able to purchase a FoodCycler unit at a discounted rate, then track data for 12 weeks to show its impact on food waste reduction in Mattawa. At the end of the trial period, the FoodCycler is yours to keep.
