Waste not, want not
What, exactly, is a Gleaner?
We have one mission: To reclaim and use food that would otherwise go to waste.
We seek to reduce the amount of edible food that is wasted in Whatcom County. With the cooperation of grocery stores, restaurants and farms, we collect food that they no longer wish to sell for various reasons: A recent expiration date, surplus stock, or damaged produce. Typical donations include slightly dented canned goods, lightly bruised fruit, and day old bread.
