Three sustainably-obsessed businesses that are housed in one West Town building, are working together to reduce waste by repurposing each other's leftovers.
Three Chicago businesses, The Roof Crop, Maxwells Trading and Flashpoint Innovation, are helping reduce waste by repurposing each other's leftovers.The ordinary looking brown brown building sits at 1516 W. Carroll in the Kinzie Industrial Corridor, a small pocket of Chicago's West Town.But it's actually extraordinarily green with three self-proclaimed "sustainably obsessed" businesses.
Come August, The Roof Crop or TRC as Boychuck calls it, will be blooming with flowers and sprouting with vegetables and a variety of plants. "Right now turnips are on the menu," said Boychuck. "The chefs are using the turnip greens but if we end up having too many turnip greens, Adam's already talking about experimenting with dehydrating those and using them in a in a dog treat.""We're grounded in trying to make an impactful change within sustainability across the national and global food service industry," said Moore.
On the first floor of the building is The Roof Crop's apothecary and flower studio called "Third Season" where you can buy everything from a coffee to naturally dyed yarns.
