GLEANING project prevents waste and picked produce benefits food banks.

Gleaning is what we do after a harvest or when we use food from fruit trees that would otherwise go to waste. We can save food from rotting in the fields or our neighbors backyard by volunteering to glean. For more information check the link below.
