When we discovered 1000s of cauliflowers about to spoil we had to call a friend to help save them in time. Many thanks to @felixprojectuk for sending a glean team to Kent at such short notice 💪🤗 #foodwasteheroes #noVEGleftbehind

We've been gleaning Kent's fields & orchards since 2013, working with growers large & small to divert crops from waste & getting them directly to communities in need. Please email: kent@feedbackglobal.org or pm us to discuss your crop & how we work. We'd love to hear from you!
