Do you grow
fruits and vegetables on your home property? Many of us do. Do you find your
trees and plants produce more than you can use yourself.
At the peak of
your harvest season do you find that your surplus goes to waste? Or, are your
neighbors and coworkers calling you the crazy fruit lady?
I know many
neighbors appreciate getting fresh fruits and vegetables from local gardens.
Fresh is so much better than what you find at the typical grocery store.
Excess fruits
and produce from your trees and garden can be donated to a local food bank.
More than 40
million gardeners across America grow fruit, vegetables, herbs and nuts in
backyard, terrace, kitchen and community gardens. Some even have orchards or
small farms. Many end up growing more than they can use, preserve or give to co-workers
and friends.
At the same
time, tens of millions of Americans struggling to feed their families can't get
fresh produce from the local food pantry.
It doesn't have
to be this way.
If you are
growing more food than you can use, AmpleHarvest.org can help you find a local
food bank that would be eager to accept your abundance.
An estimated 100
billion pounds of food (including oranges), enough to totally eliminate hunger,
is thrown away annually in the United States.
Join the
millions of gardeners across the country using AmpleHarvest.org to share their
bounty with their neighbors in need.
One out of six
Americans needs food assistance, but can't get fresh produce from the local
food pantry, while, millions of American homeowners grow more food in their
backyard gardens than they can possibly use.
The ampleharvest.org
campaign is a national effort utilizing the Internet that enables 40+ million
Americans who grow fruits and vegetables in home gardens to easily donate their
excess harvest to registered local food pantries spread across all 50 states.
Surplus oranges
from your garden will be greatly appreciated by your local food bank.
