“We are thrilled for the Farm Powered Strategic Alliance and Vanguard Renewables to be named as a finalist for Fast Company’s 2021 World Changing Ideas,” says John Hanselman, Founder and CEO of Vanguard Renewables. “The recognition of this pioneering U.S. collaborative movement to establish a circular solution to food waste reduction, repurposing, and decarbonization is a tribute to the Vanguard team along with founding partners Unilever, Starbucks, and Dairy Farmers of America.”
