This is an opportunity to redirect perfectly good food away from our landfills and into the stomachs of those in need. You can help with our food rescue efforts by driving out to our Clearwater food partners to retrieve fresh produce and bringing it to our kitchen for sorting. Must have own vehicle, a valid drivers' license, and be physically fit as this shift may involve heavy lifting. Must have closed-toed shoes.
The shift:
* The first food partner, HEP, is located at 1260 Engman St building D, Clearwater, FL 33755. Enter through the glass doors to the right and inform staff you're picking up donations for 360 Eats. Please call 727-480-9829 if you need any assistance.
* The second pickup is at Life Farms, located at 2759 Woodring Dr, Clearwater, FL 33759. Park in front of the shed to the left of the entrance and inform staff you're picking up for 360 Eats.
* You'll then bring the produce to our location at Trinity Presbyterian Church, 2001 Rainbow Dr. Clearwater, FL 33765. You may park anywhere in the south parking lot of the building. Please contact Chef Ellen at (727) 373-8188 when you have arrived and someone will come out to greet you.

360 Eats' mission is to create a just and sustainable food system where no one goes hungry and no food is wasted.
360 Eats is a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit mobile food service providing an innovative solution to bridge the gaps between food waste, food insecurity, and sustainability. In Pinellas County, food waste is the second largest category of waste. Meanwhile, thousands of families and individuals are struggling with food insecurity.
Our Solution
Saving Food: The Saving Food program rescues good food from going to waste by collecting excess food from businesses, organizations, and individuals through our mobile Food Rescue team and volunteers.
Sustain-A-Bowl: Our Sustain-A-Bowl program transforms surplus food into nutritious gourmet meals for those less fortunate. Partnering with a licensed commissary kitchen and professional chefs, we prepare and distribute these meals directly to those in need via our Sustain-A-Bowl food truck.
Sprouting Food: The Sprouting Food program turns food scraps into compost to grow more food in affected communities. Partnerships with local community gardens help us achieve a zero-waste system.
Culinary Cultivator: To enhance food security, we offer paid internships to individuals facing employment barriers, allowing them to pursue culinary careers. Over six months, interns gain skills and experience by working closely with our chefs in a commercial kitchen and aboard our food truck.
