One beef steak equals the same water consumption of a 10-hour long shower … and to think, your mom would go crazy if you were in there for longer than 10 minutes...

A kilogram of beef emits a similar amount of carbon emissions as driving from the capital of the Netherlands to the capital of Belgium … and then driving another 50 kilometers around the city.

Low value bio‑waste >
High value protein

Rice brand or other organic waste? Yes, crickets can up‑cycle this to quality proteins

Cricket poop, a premium
fertilizer

Because crickets besides pooping also shed their exoskletons (=chitin), this byproduct of our farming is also high-end fertilizer

A different kind
of animal

Pigs are mentally conscious, they have dreams and form relationships. Crickets don't even have a central neural system and don’t feel pain in the same way as we understand it

Put to sleep
before harvest

Not sure if crickets feel anything? Before each harvest, the crickets are cooled down, causing them to hibernate, just as insects sleep when subject to cold weather

The best possible
farming conditions

Crickets are used to living in dense populations, they receive natural feed without antibiotics, have enough living space, and undergo humane slaughter

We have been getting a lot of questions about the safety and hygiene of cricket farming. It is a novel food so we understand the concerns but as you will see there’s nothing to worry about. Let’s take a closer look at what we do at our farm to ensure our products are safe and nutritious.

 Cricket farming is still a relatively new thing and there are many unknowns when it comes to creating an environment that allows crickets to thrive. Let’s take a closer look at what we are doing at our farm in terms of temperature, lighting, materials, and other essentials.

Feed is one of the most interesting problems when raising crickets. Crickets can be fed a wide variety of different feeds including biowaste which makes them amazingly sustainable. Unfortunately, cricket farming is still in its infant years and nobody really knows what the perfect feed should be. Let’s take a look at what we feed crickets at our farm now and what is under development.
