The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is currently offering grants for food waste reduction and toxic chemical use reduction at Minnesota breweries.
Grants up to $75,000 are available to minimize food waste, such as diverting spent grain that otherwise would be managed as solid waste.
Another $40,000 is available for alternatives to sanitizers and cleaners used in the beer-making process, other cleaning needs throughout a facility, and alternatives to BPA paper receipts.
Grant applications will be accepted through April 13. Breweries should contact Angie Bourdaghs (651-757-2176, [email protected]) with questions.
