The Gleaning Project

Who are we?

We are a group of students and community members focused on redistributing food that would otherwise be wasted

Where does the food go?

Most food goes directly to the Yolo County Food Bank. A portion of the food is taken by gleaning volunteers to feed their families and friends.

Why is it awesome?

We are using healthy and abundant food to connect and build our community around principles of sustainability and team work.

How can you get involved?

• Become Gleaners! - we're always happy to welcome new helpers!
• Get Gleaned! - If you've got spare fruit, we'll take it!
• Share Resources - Know of anyone close by that might like to be gleaned?
  

We're happy to only pick half your tree and/or pick a box for you! Even if your fruits aren't ripe now, drop us a line so we can start a conversation! And yes, we glean zucchinis and cabbage too.
