Kaitlin Mogentale, founder and CEO of Pulp Pantry, was a model student and, despite a healthy admiration for her more mischievous peers, was a high-achiever who studied and earned good grades at school while voluntarily taking on whatever extra-curricular activities she could. Attending a Women in Science event sparked her passion for the subject and sent her down the path of searching the world for its problems and solutions. The first major problem she identified came while interning with The Garden School Foundation, an L.A. non-profit that provides schools with gardening and cooking classes. Through her work for the organization, she became aware of just how many people are living their lives with a dire lack of access to healthy, nutritional food. The second big problem became clear, one day, when she watched her friend juice a carrot. They were about to throw the solid, vegetable leftovers away, and Kaitlin was immediately struck by just how much quality food is constantly being wasted as discarded pulp. She saw a way that the two problems could be united, solving each other in the process, and Pulp Pantry was born: a food manufacturer with the aim to cultivate nutritious and sustainable food options for future generations. Kaitlin came from a loving, stable family and, to this day, she’s filled with gratitude for the upbringing they gave her. It’s, perhaps, this gratitude that makes her sense of social responsibility so strong and makes her so driven to find ways to improve the world, two problems at a time. In this episode of the Gravity podcast, Kaitlin joins us to discuss the inspirations and motivations behind her successful, ethical venture. What Brett asks: [01:26] Start at the beginning: tell me where you came from? [05:55] How was your family life, growing up? [13:20] Why do you have so much gratitude for your upbringing?

In the beginning, there was juice – then there was pulp. But what do you do with it? That’s the question that led Kaitlin Mogentale to found Pulp Pantry, a fruit and vegetable snack company on a mission to usher in a new wave of good nutrition and sustainability that’s accessible to everyone.   “A toast to all of the amazing women who are changing our food system!” –Kaitlin Mogentale   It all started with a carrot. Kaitlin saw her friend making juice and, always wearing her environmental studies hat, she immediately saw how much pulp was wasted. In fact, after some research, Kaitlin found that for each pound of juice produced, as much four pounds of nutritious pulp is created (and, usually, wasted). When you add up all of the commercial juicers just in the LA area, that’s thousands of pounds of delicious and nutritious food thrown away each week!   So Kaitlin started tinkering, beginning with a batch of delicious carrot pulp cookies. Eventually, she stumbled onto Pulp Pantry’s flagship product: grain-free granola!   “Businesses and brands have the potential to change culture – and brands have emotional value!” –Kaitlin Mogentale   We also discuss: The origins of Pulp Pantry Waste in the juicing industry (and the food industry in general) Making healthy food accessible in food desert communities How we can incorporate environmentalism into capitalism Why packaging is Kaitlin’s archnemesis Where you can purchase Pulp Pantry snacks Bringing the human element into Pulp Pantry The process of creating Pulp Pantry snacks The challenges to making healthy foods more accessible (and how Pulp Pantry is overcoming this) What you can expect from Pulp Pantry’s product line in the near future Conscious consumption & social enterprise   Resources: Learn more (and get some snacks) at pulppantry.com Connect with Pulp Pantry: Instagram | Facebook | Twitter   Kaitlin Mogentale’s Bio: Living in South Los Angeles, Pulp Pantry's founders Kaitlin and Ashley were confronted with the reality of living in a food desert plagued by a lack of access to healthy food. As classmates at the University of Southern California in the social enterprise program, they were excited to join forces to dream up their own small way to be a part of the solution.   Working at an urban school garden in a food desert, Kaitlin was exposed to the poor quality of food "fueling" kids' bodies each day (what with french fries counting as a daily vegetable!). She saw kids come into the garden, having never seen a fresh carrot before, teaching them to grow a carrot from seed to stem (later exclaiming: "carrots are my favorite vegetable!").   It all started when Pulp Pantry's founder Kaitlin Mogentale watched a friend juice a carrot. That moment proved to be quite transformative, as she saw firsthand the large amount of fresh pulp that was left behind.   "What do you do with your pulp?"   Her friend admitted to having no clue about what to do with the pulp, meaning this resource was destined for the trash.   With a background in Environmental Studies, Kaitlin's inner food waste warrior couldn't help but want to rescue the carrot's better half. She happily took the pulp home to make her first-ever juice pulp carrot cookies (and they were delicious!).   Our vision is to cultivate a better, more nutritious food reality in communities regardless of income — one day, we hope to be in not just health food markets, but in corner stores in every part of the country.

On today's episode, we meet Kaitlin Mogentale, half of a duo of highly focussed young social entrepreneurs with a brilliant business called Pulp Pantry. They launched their big idea hyper-locally through the farmers markets in Los Angeles. Every day, they are succeeding in their mission of changing the cycle of food waste in the United States and how we think about our food. Through hard work and activism, Pulp Panty is replacing sugar-laden grain cereals with nutrient-rich, organic and remarkably delicious granolas. Their line of juice pulp granolas and crackers are working their way into the pantries of lower-income communities through educational outreach efforts while simultaneously gaining a loyal following amongst committed localvores and natural foodies. Kaitlin is high energy and super focussed about her mission, her product line, and her business strategy. She is a passionate and outspoken ambassador for health foods and food justice, and she is a great example for those podcast listeners who want to launch a food product at the farmers market or take their farmers market food business to the next level. Visit PulpPantry.com to be part of their national launch. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/get-in-my-garden-podcast/message
