Over break a food waste pulper was installed in the Cafeteria dishroom through a generous award from the Iowa DNR Solid Waste Alternatives Program.
Luther had previously diverted approximately 450 pounds of fruits, vegetables, and grains per day for composting. The pulper allows all food scraps, including meat and dairy, to be converted into easily compostable material, potentially eliminating up to 100 tons of food waste from entering the landfill over a year's time.
