Ben Collier

CEO at Farmlink Project | USA

Ben Collier ensures each member of his team understands how their work plays an essential role in their theory of change: to avoid as much food waste as possible throughout North America. With over 200 million pounds of fresh and healthy food, that would usually go to waste on farms and in transit, Ben and the Farmlink Project are on their way to create a more sustainable food system and well-nourished society. How they made that happen? With no experience or industry connections but with a desire to learn and the willingness to keep asking “why?” repeatedly. A great inspiration for us all, to not simply accept “because that’s the way it has always been” for an answer.
