After the Harvest rescues nutritious fruits and vegetables from going to waste and donates them to agencies that serve hungry people in KC.

We’re celebrating National Strawberry 🍓 Day t

We’re celebrating National Strawberry 🍓 Day two days early!! @driscollsberry donated 1,400 lbs. of #strawberries and even delivered them in their high truck for our volunteers 🥰to distribute to 16 agencies in Greater KC. Thanks so much to Driscolls for their generous donation to our hungry neighbors. And thanks to volunteers David Earls, Marsha Toler, Mark Friend, Chely Scarbrough, Susan Brown, Katrina Taggart, Jeff Horn and Tom and Barb Decker who loaded up the berries in a half hour and hit the road! VEG Squader Jeff said that this distribution “was sort of like our spring training”…before gleaning season rolls around in May.

We may have just pulled the last turnip of the gleaning season!🥳 Join us as we take a deep dive into our Buck$ for Trucks 🚛🚚campaign…raising $40,000 to rescue semi-truckloads of donated produce that is just a little #lessthanperfect and not destined for retailers…but likely to end up in landfills. These nutritious fruits 🍎 and vegetables 🥒 will feed thousands over the holiday season and beyond. Help by fundraising and/or giving. Go to our website to find out how you can help.
