If you’re like me, and many other California’s your garden yields an abundance of food, more than you and your neighbors can consume. I’m so excited to share our abundance with others in my local community through FOOD FORWARD!

Great nonprofit organization making an impact fighting hunger and reducing food waste.
Food Forward rescues surplus produce that would otherwise go to waste and donates it to hundreds of nonprofit agencies serving individuals experiencing food insecurity. Staff and volunteers collect an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables from backyard fruit trees, public orchards, farmers markets, and with a large percentage coming from the Wholesale Produce district in downtown Los Angeles.
The fresh fruits and vegetables we recover are donated to us, and we in turn donate them to hunger relief agencies across 12 counties in Southern California, 6 neighboring states and tribal lands.
