Volunteer to Glean

Farmers Against Hunger needs volunteers. Food pantry demand is up and volunteers are down. Call Judy at 609 462-9691 if you have some extra time to come out to glean. Not asking for money, just your time, which is far more valuable and much needed!

Farmers Against Hunger is a unique organization founded by a handful of concerned farmers. The mission of Farmers Against Hunger is to collect and distribute surplus fruits and vegetables from New Jersey farms to those in need through local community organizations. Gleanings are a key part of the FAH program: each year nearly 1,000 volunteers come out to fields to help pick and package produce.

Riamede Farm participates by allowing Farmers Against Hunger to glean fallen apples from the ground for delivery to local food pantries. But please, do not call Riamede Farm directly, all gleanings at our farm are organized by Judy. Call her today: 609 462-9691 to volunteer.
