Our Work

FOOD ACCESS

Through our food pantry and

student nutrition programs we strive to provide as much fresh and healthy food as possible. Our most recent calculation showed that a family of 4 can save up to $165 per week by “shopping” at the pantry!

food recovery

Fresh Food Collective was formed to solve two problems we face in America: food waste and hunger.

We recover produce that would otherwise go to waste and distribute it to those in need through partnerships with local farms, senior centers, libraries, and non-profits.

FOOD as health

We believe that good food is the key

to good health and good health

is the key to strong communities.

In 2019, we developed our first

clinically based food as medicine program in collaboration with area healthcare providers.

Double Your Impact!

Thanks to a generous community partner– your gift will now be DOUBLED!

Through December 31st, every dollar raised up to $100,000 will be matched dollar for dollar.

That means your gift will go twice as far to feed those in our communities.

Make a one-time or monthly donation and have a real impact on the lives of individuals throughout our region. A gift of just $20.00 can provide 80 MEALS for a family in need!

Our community is relying on us now more than ever.

We are working hard to make sure that they have the food they need, but there is still much work to be done.

Your generosity means more children, families and seniors will have access to good, healthy food.
