Through the Zero Waste, Zero Hunger project, we found that transportation, staffing, and scheduling barriers can make it difficult for vendors to donate to larger food banks. This program was created to provide a faster, more flexible local solution that works for farmers market vendors.
​
Our volunteers make donating easy by helping connect farmers market vendors with local meal sites and food programs that can quickly use fresh produce in community meals — often the very same evening or weekend after the market.
