Mid-Ohio Food Bank – Feed the hungry by collecting and distributing food and graocery products, adovacating for hunger-relief programs, and collaborating with others who address basic human needs

  • Food Industy Donations - They work with restaurants, supermarkets, wholesalers  etc. to collect un-served food to redistribute to the hungry. They can even arrange food pickups so this may be an option that OWU can pursue.

Composting Food Waste

  •  Youngstown State University( they give the finished compost to buildings and grounds for landscaping),
  •  University of Iowa (Same Story)
  • University of Vermont (give finished product to farmers, home gardeners, and landscapers)
  • There are more examples as well, but this could also be another option of dealing with food waste at OWU
