Mill is taking your leftover burritos, onion skins, and boxes of stale crackers and using it as raw material for chicken feed. That's right, the food you eat becomes food for the food you eat.
Mill is a service focused around a trash can-sized kitchen bin that agitates and dehydrates food waste. Why dehydrate? Water is the main culprit in that funky smell you're punched in the nose with every time you open your trash can. Not only does it allow bacterial growth, it takes up space. Much like us, the food we eat is largely composed of water. Get rid of the water and you not only rob microbes of a free lunch, you reduce the volume significantly.
And as far as reducing your impact when you ship back the food waste , Mill has partnered with USPS, who pick up the Food Grounds with your regular mail delivery. Granted, those trucks aren't the most efficient…but that's a whole different story . I appreciate that you can either open the Mill bin with a pedal if your hands are full or you can manually open the lid to keep it open. When working through a cycle, the lid locks, but you can interrupt the cycle with a button press or via the app to add more food scraps.
