“I love knowing that the extra zucchini and tomatoes from my garden are helping families in my own community. Fresh Food Connect makes it so easy to give back — it’s something small that adds up to something big.” — Megan, Fresh Food Connect Gardener
1 in 7 Americans faces food insecurity
especially limited access to fresh, nutritious produce.
At the same time,
1 in 3 homes grows food
and most have more than they can use.
Fresh Food Connect bridges this gap. We connect home and community gardeners with nearby hunger relief organizations, turning garden abundance into community nourishment.
Our impact beyond the numbers:
- Connection, resources and support for thousands of new and seasoned gardeners
Good food stays out of landfills, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and offsetting costs for hard-working families
We are creating a community-based food system where neighbors support each other, and foods are nutritious, local, and culturally relevant
Together, we’re building a more connected, sustainable, and equitable food future — one garden at a time.
