We waste tons of good food in the United States.
(ReFed Report, 2016)
Dehydration keeps our good food from going bad.
Dehydration is an ancient technology that's due for a comeback. By removing most of the water content, the food gains a much longer shelf life and gains several huge benefits:
+ zero preservatives needed
+ up to 98% weight reduction
+ enhanced flavor profile
+ easily reconstituted with water
There is huge responsibility, as well as opportunity, in reconfiguring the food supply chain in order to make the most of what we produce. At every level, we can impact the amount of food that is wasted. We first capture the value of fresh produce by incentivizing growers & sellers, where we can then preserve those healthy ingredients, giving us time to formulate the right products to be adopted by multiple industries.
Can our food supply chain turn trash into treasure?
Creating new opportunities for preserved food to shine.
Everyday Summer connects the dots in the food supply chain so that we may provide a new (extended) life for our valuable produce. We dehydrate the seasonal goodness that we source from California farms to meet the needs of multiple stakeholders.
