Since 2014, Rust Belt Riders has made it their mission to feed people, not landfills. The worker-owned social enterprise seeks to reframe waste streams as inputs to a circular and just economic model.
Aiming to actively combat the global climate crisis, improve regional food security, and create place-based dignified jobs all while building adaptive 21st-century infrastructure.
