Give Food

We welcome fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and other garden or farm-grown produce.

Before contacting us, please be ready to share:

• What is available and approximately how much

• Whether it has already been harvested

• When it was harvested or purchased

• Where the produce is located

• Whether you can deliver it

When scheduling allows, we may be able to pick up produce donations of at least 75 pounds, or approximately three bushels, within 15 miles of our office.
