Fresh Food Connect envisions homegrown food within reach. Our mission is to grow a more local and resilient food system by connecting gardeners with their communities. Fresh Food Connect is a tech-based non-profit that engages gardeners to easily donate excess garden produce to hunger relief organizations in their own area. We are focused on engaging gardeners across the country in hunger relief efforts and encouraging more of us to grow beautiful, nutrient-dense foods. We believe the beauty of Fresh Food Connect is that it is really about connecting neighbor to neighbor with delicious, healthy, life-giving food. And by sharing our garden bounty and keeping food hyper local, we can minimize our carbon footprint. Did you know that 40% of food in the US is wasted? Decreasing food waste is one of the most influential things we can accomplish to slow climate change.
