Waste less, feed more! We’re strengthening communities and creating a future where everyone has access to fresh, healthy produce. Visit https://bit.ly/40LHK1x to join the movement! How We Do It We collect fresh fruits and vegetables that would normally go to waste from backyard fruit trees, public orchards, farmers markets, and the downtown Los Angeles Wholesale Produce Market. 100% of the produce we recover is donated to hunger relief agencies across eight counties in Southern California. Why We Do It According to the NRDC, up to 40% of food in the United States is wasted. At the same time, one in nine Californians lacks adequate access to food. Food Forward presents a simple solution to this disparity by connecting surplus fresh fruits and vegetables with people experiencing food insecurity in our communities.
