And I would throw it out and feed it to my hogs and they would go crazy on it.

And then just from that, it got me kind of thinking a little bit more.

Well, Whole Foods, one of the managers at Whole Foods caught me doing that and was like, hey, you can't be rummaging through our trash anymore.

So it got me thinking.

I went to Sun Life Organics first, just walked in.

I asked them,

what do you guys do with all your smoothie stuff, your juice leftovers?

Could I have your trash?

They're like, that's kind of weird.

No, you can't have our trash, man.

Alchemy Juice was another local place right in Dripping.

They got a couple places in Austin as well.

I swung in there, asked them if I could have their trash.

They're like, yeah, that would actually be doing us a huge service.

We have to pay a special company, a composting company to come and haul it away.

So,

If you were to come and pick this up and haul it away for us, it would actually be a benefit for us and it would save us money.

So I just started doing that every day.

I would go in and pick it up and feed it out to my pigs.

And then I started expanding to feeding it to my cattle, feeding it to my sheep.
