Gleaning for Others: Where Fresh Food Does Not Go to Waste

Record #:

Author(s):
Abstract:
In Haywood County, volunteers are gleaning or gathering produce left in fields after commercial harvest. The leftover crops are either donated to feed the hungry or shipped to local grocers. Farmers are also contributing produce as an outlet for unsold goods, to receive state tax credit, and to help people in the community.
