When Loop Resource launched more than five years ago just, three farmers were involved. Now, the company's operations include 3,000 farmers.

One of Scott Judson's goats feasts on a piece of celery it found in a box filled with expired produce and baked items from a southeast grocery store.

There is no cost to farmers for the feed, all they have to do is pick it up from a participating store. While there is labour involved in driving to the city to pick up the expired food and bringing it home, Judson says it's worth it. Darcy Gudmundson is the store manager at the Real Canadian Superstore in Shawnessy and has been taking part in the Loop program for a few years. He says he's seen a huge reduction in what the store throws out.
