Gleaning

We are a local grassroots group of volunteers connecting gleaners to farmers and growers.  We fund and organize bus trips to area farms to pick produce. For smaller growers we organize cars of gleaners. The growers donate some of their crops for gleaners to pick for free.  There are about 20 communities in the city involved and many other individuals from the county.  Each city community has a community contact who organizes their neighbours for a bus stop.  There are volunteer gleaners and supervisors also.  Most gleaners are on low income and pick for themselves, their relatives, neighbours and food banks/meal programs.   We are down to the last four buses and there is a lot more produce in the fields to be picked so time is of the essence.  We are asking you to support this amazing program in any way possible to keep the buses rolling out to the farms and feeding those in need. Thank you in advance for your support.....
