BOSTON, MA -- Table scraps, discarded meals that never make it to the dining room and aging leftovers. Garbage to you and many in the food industry, perhaps, but it's a windfall for New England firm Converted Organics.
This season, the 2-year-old company is reaching out to remind businesses dealing in food that it is happy to relieve them of the remainder of holiday repasts. The firm processes food waste into "organic biostimulants" for flowers, crops and other plant life for professional and residential use.
The Boston-based company works with haulers, communities, institutions and schools near its plants in New Jersey and Southern California. The haulers bring food waste to the plants where it is processed on site, in a closed-loop system in about three days, said company spokesman Jamie Dunne.
"There's no smell and there's no vermin — and it's sustainable from start to finish," he said.
