The Loop Program diverts unused food away from landfills to either the food bank (if it is safe for human consumption), to farm animals, or to sustainable food production and energy. It’s “a simple, sustainable way to do the right thing for the environment while helping strengthen our communities,” according to Loop Resource’s website. Through Save-On-Foods’ partnership with Loop in Alberta, over 750 small family farms benefit directly and indirectly from participation in the program.
