Sharing just some of our amazing rescues in this month. Our drivers and volunteers are working hard to ensure the people of our community have food that they need to thrive, now more than ever.
No one should have to wonder where their next meal will come from.

We’re grateful to hospitals like Kaiser for donating surplus healthy meals, preventing waste and feeding our community. These ready-to-eat meals go to senior centers, shelters, and housing programs—this is food recovery in action.

When food ends up in landfills, it contributes to climate change by releasing methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Reducing food waste fights hunger, conserves water & reduces greenhouse gas emissions. We recover perfectly good food BEFORE it’s wasted, benefiting both people & the planet.

This is what partnership looks like. This is why ExtraFood exists: to get good food into the hands of people who need it most, through our partners who know their communities and love them deeply. Read more about our partnership with People's church in Marin City on our blog: ExtraFood.org/Peoples

What does a packed car mean? It means we're delivering free groceries and meals for the people we serve. Every box we load up is one less meal wasted and one more neighbor fed.

Who's ready for stone fruit season! Share your backyard bounty with people less fortunate. We can pick up excess fruit, veggies or herbs from backyards & farms in Marin, Sonoma Valley and San Francisco. We can even help you harvest if you live in Marin. Learn how at ExtraFood.org/sharethebounty.
