Banana peels, carrot tops, old takeout, and coffee grounds. Uneaten food is our biggest contributor to landfills and a major driver of climate change!
Did you know?
- Most food waste comes from our homes, not industry or agriculture.
- It’s a major producer of methane, a greenhouse gas 80x more potent than CO2 over 20 years.
- All in, the food in landfills is worse for the planet than the entire global airline industry.


The City of Avondale is proud to announce a partnership with Mill and R.City to make it easy for residents to stop putting food in the garbage.

For a limited time only, sign up for an exclusive rate of $30/month and get a Mill food recycler, which turns your food waste into nutrient-rich grounds. R.City will pick up these grounds monthly and turn them into compost to feed farms. Plus, you can request finished compost or a seasonal farm box once per quarter.

Even better? The first 25 residents to sign up will receive Mill+R.City for only $25/month.
