Lane Rylander is a Sustainability Manager at Moonshot Compost, a data-driven composting company, where she partners with organizations to design and implement food-waste diversion programs while educating on the benefits of soil health and environmental impact of organic waste. Lane holds a degree from the University of Virginia, where her studies focused on the intersection of food systems and the built environment. After graduating, she spent several years gaining hands-on experience in local food production while working on a diversified organic farm in central Virginia. Her work is grounded in the belief that a truly sustainable food system must also be equitable.
