BECOME A FOOD DONOR

Families with a limited income often don't consume enough fresh fruits and vegetables. Through donating unmarketable crops you can help feed people in your local community in need.

Attention home gardeners!!!! Too much, too big, too small, funny looking?? Participate in our new HUGS program.

Small Potatoes Gleaning Project assists home gardeners in distributing their excess fruit and vegetables through the Home and Urban Garden Surplus (HUGS) program.

Gardeners can call to make arrangements for a team of volunteers to come and glean for them, or to obtain information about the locations and delivery hours of food banks and meals programs in their area. If you are overwhelmed with abundance from your garden, we can help you share your HUGS with hungry people in our community. We do our best to provide quality produce to those who otherwise don't have access to fresh, nourishing food. Before calling, ask yourself if it's food you would eat. Please do not ask us to harvest overripe, or insect ridden fruit.
