Often our food donors have to pull great produce from the floor because one piece of bad fruit will quickly turn the entire display of produce bad because of the gases the bad fruit will emit. It is not cost effective for them to spend the time to pull each of these and re weigh the produce etc. Harvest and Hope is able to pick up this produce and volunteers separate the good produce from the bad and we are left with enough great produce for hundreds, sometimes thousands of meals yearly! The excess can be composted or is sometimes turned over to farmers for feed for animals. We do as much as we can to keep waste to a minimum. Look at the beautiful color in this produce that will be headed to over 300 children in a food insecure neighborhood in Southeast Houston this morning. As always we need your help ! Donations are always needed to help fund our programs. You can donate here or at www.harvestandhope.com/donate
Thank you for you support!
