What do you do when there is plenty of food and lots of hungry people? You share! The only way to build a better food system is to do it Together!
Farmer Foodshare volunteers run Donation Stations at local farmers markets across the Triangle and Triad in North Carolina. Here's how your ONE Donation Station shift = 3 times the IMPACT
#1 Farmers donate local food for neighbors in need in their own community. (Food that would otherwise go to compost or fed to animals)
#2Shoppers help, too. Farmers' market shoppers donate cash which volunteers use to buy food from farmers that same day, helping them earn a healthy living! (no money ever leaves the farmers market!)
#3 All this fresh food is then picked up by a local hunger relief agencies and distributed to folks who need it.
That's truly - Fresh. Local. Food for ALL!
