A true closed-loop system.

Material Receiving

The farm routinely brings in two different types of waste material from sources throughout the Midwest, all of it material that would otherwise go to landfills. One waste source is a food-grade byproduct left over from food manufacturers, grocery stores and other similar commercial operations. The other is manure waste, hauled in from dairy producers across the region. Some of the food is routed to the livestock, while the rest, along with the dairy manure, goes straight to the Anaerobic Digestion phase.
