The Orange Peel: Social Aid & Pleasure Club of Asheville

Asheville, North Carolina is known for its vibrant food scene and its love for locally sourced ingredients.
One business that has recently caught

our attention is The Orange Peel, a street vendor that specializes in freshly squeezed orange juice.

Located on the bustling streets of downtown Asheville, The Orange Peel has become a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. What sets this business apart is its commitment to using only the freshest ingredients. The oranges used in their juices are sourced from local farms and are handpicked to ensure maximum flavor.

But what happens to all the orange peels left behind after the juice has been squeezed? The Orange Peel has found a unique way to utilize this byproduct. They have partnered with local farmers to turn the orange peels into compost, which is then used to fertilize the very farms that supply the oranges for their juice.
