ABOUT US
Since its beginning in 2016, WUNDERgrubs has been committed to micro-livestock farming techniques and cooking with insects to help preserve our natural resources. Yet, we realized we had to warm people up to the idea of eating insects first - so we started with our ever popular version of an insect enriched chocolate chip cookie. I mean who doesn't love a cookie?
The sell of our cookies and now some other fun products has allowed us to work on our goal to educate localized urban and rural communities and farmers about the benefits of producing edible insect protein equivalent in nutrition with the advantages of low capital costs, low food requirements, less natural resources, and requiring limited to no labor which in turn can meet the protein and affordability of under-served communities, along with accessibility for flourishing ones. In our world, everyone eats.

OUR WORKFor our company, this is not just a trendy niche...this is a real solution. We want local communities to expand their palates to create a culture of appreciation around the idea of entomophagy (humans eating edible insects).
We want urban and rural communities to rally around micro livestock farming, cooking and producing food products with insects as one of the solutions to combat the rapid, continued degradation of our water, soil quality, and decreased access in land use, as well as affordability and access to another nutritious source of protein in their diets. We connect communities to micro livestock farming and the production of food with insects through demonstration of sustainable and economically viable solutions - such as our IoT.ATL vertical insect farm on the Eastside Trail - soon to launch - to help people improve their quality of life. |
