Hi! We’re Peat. We grow mushrooms from food waste. Why? Because we care about feeding people. We care about climate change. We like to get dirty. Feel the same?
We are a small but mighty startup at a very early stage. We are mostly part-time haulers and mushroom growers who are the core of what we do. We pick up food waste in Manhattan and Brooklyn and transport it to our facility in Queens. We work our magic to grow mushrooms from that waste. We box the mushrooms and then transport them to restaurants and distribution centers throughout NYC.
We are reliable, on-time and great communicators. We lift heavy things (up to 100lbs!) and feel more than comfortable handling food scraps. We get the job done no matter what. We maintain our work equipment with care. You too? Work with us!
