We approach our work with partnership in mind that goes beyond baking. This starts by helping kitchens reduce food waste by giving grumpy bananas and other overripe fruit a second chance to shine in healthy – and TASTY – baked items!

That's a lot of fruit!
Pounds of Fruit Saved Annually
We started tracking our role in rescuing fruit in 2021. After putting a stake in the rescued fruit game – we’ve exponentially increased the amount of fruit rescued by using Miffy’s Baking Mixes.
2021 – 2023 YTD: 55,565 pounds of fruit
that equates to 25 tons!
How many elephants?
Since starting tracking our goal, we’ve rescued bananas equivalent to 25 elephants! Long-term we look forward to rescuing enough fruit every year to weigh the same as 450 elephants.
2023 GOAL: 60 ELEPHANTS
Meet Minnie!
We’re not just committed to rescuing fruit at Miffy’s Foods. In an effort to put our money where our mouth is – we’ve adopted our very own elephant! Minnie is our guiding beacon to help remind us, and all our partners, what we’re trying to achieve together!
Helping a Sister Out...
These are some of the ways Miffy’s Foods is contributing to Minnie’s happiness at The Elephant Santuary in Tennessee.

TRAINING TOOLS
Tasty treats and tools to help Minnie be her best self and be a model elephant! This includes tools for her caretakers and snacks for Minnie.
HOORAY FOR HAY
We love that The Sanctuary thinks about reducing food waste too! Regular hay deliveries means keeping the hay fresh and reducing waste due to sitting too long in storage.
