Get to know Food Forward

Food Forward is a nonprofit organization that brings fresh surplus fruits and vegetables to people experiencing food insecurity.

We’ve been on a mission to fight hunger and reduce food waste since 2009, and with the help of supporters like you, we will create a future where everyone in our communities has access to healthy produce.


Where we work

Food Forward recovers produce across eight California counties that include Los Angeles and Ventura, along with six adjacent states and tribal lands.
