Our mission

Bringing the food system back into balance with nature

By 2050, the world will need to feed around 10 billion people sustainably, without deforestation, overfishing, or food waste. Our current food system is broken: it depletes precious resources while one-third of all food goes to waste.

Operating out of Kasese District, our Black Soldier Fly Project transforms this wasteful, linear system into a circular model of reuse and renewal. It’s nature’s own solution, and it’s already at work.
