We fight hunger & food insecurity
We deliver 138,000 pounds of surplus food per day to local charities six days a week, providing families in need with fresh and nutritious food free of charge.
How to Help
With your support, we can relieve hunger in Metro Detroit and prevent nutritious food waste.
When just $10 provides $70 worth of groceries to those in need, no contribution is too small to help.
From our farm to your office, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved and lend a hand.
Food donors and agency distributors are essential in helping us feed hungry communities.
