We receive a lot of fresh, nutritious fruits and vegetables from generous farmers and need drivers like you to help us deliver them to food agencies in our community.
We’ve added several new farmers markets this year and will be picking up donated produce at the following markets: Parkville, Brookside, City Market, Overland Park, Lenexa, Merriam, Lee’s Summit, Unity Village.
We also receive calls from farmers who have already harvested extra produce and just need a driver to take it to a nearby food pantry.
Join our Produce Rescue Driver team! Please attend this training if you would like to be part of our cool crew rescuing, delivering, and getting healthy food to those who are experiencing hunger.
This training will be virtual. Please sign up here.

After the Harvest, Premier Integrative Health and Compost Collective KC are collaborating for a one-of-a-kind Kansas City community event at Loose Park!
We invite you and your friends to join us for an outdoor screening of WASTED! The Story Of Food Waste produced by Anthony Bourdain. This wildly entertaining and educational documentary exposes the criminality of food waste and how it’s directly contributing to climate change, food scarcity and the degradation of our soils. WASTED! demonstrates how each of us can make small changes – all of them delicious – to solve one of the greatest problems of the 21st Century.
Through the eyes of famous chefs, you will see how they make the most of every kind of food, transforming what most people consider scraps into incredible dishes that create a more secure food system. Make plans to join us and register here.
We are hosting this collaborative event to educate you on new ways to support your community and discover what you can do to contribute to a more sustainable and symbiotic food system!
Premier Integrative Health is a unique medical practice that uses Integrative and Functional medicine to get to the root cause of our patient’s concerns. We focus on the prevention and reversal of disease as opposed to managing symptoms. Our team of doctors, health coaches and dietitians address all aspects of health including nutrition, movement and emotional wellbeing. We create a partnership with our patients to help them achieve their health goals and live the best life they can.
This awesome organization is composed of a small group of caring citizens who want to make composting easy for you and keep food out of landfills. They’ve created a curbside compost pick-up service in the KC area to help reduce food waste & replenish the soils of our community. They are in partnership with Missouri Organic and local farms; after picking up food scraps from your home, they deliver it to these local farms where it is transformed into nutrient-dense compost that will be used to grow MORE nutritious food… and the cycle begins again!
As we emerge from the pandemic fog, we can finally travel about, share drinks, meals and enjoy life again. For all of those reasons we have partnered with some of our best friends and community partners in Greater Kansas City to offer you one-of-a-kind experiences to enjoy with the people you love.
Every dollar spent at our auction will help support our mission to fight food insecurity, improve nutrition and reduce food waste. This year alone we have rescued more than 2 million pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables for our hungry neighbors.
