About Kitchen2Compost

Built by composters for local connections nationwide.

Useful scraps were hitting dumpsters while composters down the road wanted them. So we built the app that makes the introduction. Co-founded by Sean Gallagher, a Texas Hill Country vermicompost farmer, and Christiana Rodgers, a worm farmer from San Antonio Composting Project, both trained in composting, it is built to make local handoffs fast, clear, and practical in communities across the country.

Founders

Sean Gallagher

Sean runs a vermicompost farm in the Texas Hill Country and leads product and engineering at K2C. He and Christiana started the company after seeing one too many dumpsters full of perfectly good scraps.

Christiana Rodgers

Christiana farms worms and comes from the San Antonio Composting Project, so she knows the local composting community inside and out. She leads outreach and keeps the platform grounded in what businesses and collectors actually need.

What makes K2C different?

We don’t take custody of your scraps or run a hauling route. K2C gives businesses and collectors one place to find each other, claim a listing, and coordinate the handoff directly.

A sustainability business

The five C's we build around

Kitchen2Compost is a sustainability business. We keep food scraps out of landfills and put them back into local soil. Here is what that means in practice, across five fronts.

Climate Scraps buried in a landfill rot without air and release methane. Scraps that get composted skip that entirely.
Conservation Food scraps are full of nutrients. Composting returns them to the soil instead of burying them.
Community Every matchmaking connection is local: a business and a collector, often just a few miles apart, meeting face to face.
Culture Our learning center exists to make composting a normal habit, not a niche hobby. The more people who know how, the less that gets wasted.
Commerce Businesses can lighten their dumpsters, collectors and farmers get material they want, and the value stays in the local economy.
Built by compostersWe understand the work because we do it.
Nationwide reachBuilt for local food-scrap connections in communities across the U.S.
Practical, not preachyClear listings, clear pickup details, and fewer unnecessary steps.
