Each growing season on Sunday afternoon, Bread for the City partners with several local farmers markets to glean or "rescue" leftover produce. We then rely on dedicated volunteers to help us sort and pack this produce into family-sized servings so that we can quickly and efficiently distribute it to our Food Pantry clients the following week.
