The Municipality of East Hawkesbury has completed a pilot organic waste recovery program in partnership with Food Cycle Science, using FoodCycler™ technology.

As part of this initiative, 100 FoodCycler™ units were purchased using service delivery funds, then offered to residents at a subsidized price. With a municipal contribution of $125 per unit, residents were able to purchase a $500 FoodCycler for just $175.

Participants were able to keep their units at the end of the project and continue diverting their food waste.

Benefits of the pilot project :

  • Successful testing of a household solution for organic waste recovery;
  • Reduction in the volume of food waste sent to landfill;
  • Contribution to the municipality's climate change objectives;
  • Access to environmentally-friendly technology at an affordable cost for residents.
