Where Waste Ends, Value Begins

The food system is broken — and you can feel it in the prices. Protein production is wasteful, unstable, and harmful to the planet. As global demand grows, we need better solutions.

Farmhood steps in where others discard. Using by-products the industry overlooks, we extract clean, high-value plant proteins that replace animal sources. Less waste, more nutrition — all through circular design.

By 2030, the food industry must feed 8 billion people,

But, food waste and inefficiencies threaten both supply and farmer livelihoods.

Our founder Selin  saw this firsthand in her family’s tangerine orchard, where unsold produce was left to rot. 

Shared
Purpose

We believe food innovation happens together. By bridging sustainability and nutrition, and working with circular economy models, we aim to reshape how food systems operate.

Impact Through
Reinvention

Our mission is to turn food waste into high-value, plant-based protein — unlocking nutrition, minimizing loss, and delivering real-world impact through scalable innovation.

Science-Driven
Food Futures

We’re advancing food systems through science — upcycling sidestreams, reducing waste, and creating functional vegan proteins for a more resilient food future.

Built to
Solve

Excellence means acting on global challenges — from climate to food security — with efficient, scalable, and sustainable solutions that shape the future of food.

Our Team

While we share a common passion and we are committed to achieve this goal regardless of how hard it may be, we complement each other’s skills and strengths. Our team consists of five professionals with expertise in food engineering, biotechnology, business strategy, and marketing, collectively bringing over 25 years of experience to our startup. 

We are based at Nişantaşı University, fostering strong academia-industry collaboration. Being at the heart of research allows us to focus on innovative foodtech solutions while also rapidly commercializing our technologies for real-world impact.
