I was a Hungry Harvest customer before they reached out to me (and I still am a paying customer!).Īs you all know, I’ve had a produce delivery box service for a while, mainly because I liked that it forced me to prepare some produce that’s outside my normal comfort zone.

Oh man, that’s a tough call! We are always sampling new produce and recipes posted by our recipe club, so many good things to choose – this week in particular I’d have to say the Asian Pear, Arugula & Feta pizza one of our ambassadors made up.

We are launching our Miami office shortly, with plans to add 3 more cities by year’s end on the East Coast. We are one solution, but I look forward to more people joining this cause and bringing new ideas and technologies to fill in the gaps toward a more whole solution. It’s going to take a myriad of solutions to truly fix the problem of food waste, hunger, fair compensation for farmers, and more efficient logistics from farm to fork. The systemic issues in the food industry are vast and complicated. What advice would you give to someone trying to get involved in food recovery?ĭo it.

You can’t put a price, or a TV show appearance, or an award on the look on people’s faces when you hand them a full box of fresh produce and know that on that day, they will not be hungry because of your team’s work. This year we surpassed 3 million pounds of food recovered and 500k pounds more donated.
What has been your biggest achievement so far? I started this company with the belief that food is a right, not a privilege, and work daily to increase access to fresh produce to those in need. I’ve always believed that through social entrepreneurship, we can exact swift systemic change to some of the biggest problems our world faces with regard to food justice. Why did you decide to start the organization? We founded Hungry Harvest in 2014 on the University of Maryland campus. How long have you been running your organization? For every delivery, we subsidize 2 lbs of produce for families living in food deserts through our produce in SNAP sites. That’s why we source, hand pack, and securely deliver delicious boxes of recovered produce on a weekly and bi-weekly basis. We believe that no food should go to waste and that no person should go hungry. Summarize your organization in one sentence.
