Our community is strengthened by those that invest in the health of our neighbors. Each year the farmers of Santa Barbara County donate over one million pounds of fresh produce and local grocery stores participating in the Grocery Rescue Program donate over 800,000 pounds of perishable goods.

Donors know with confidence that their donation will safely reach the people who need it most.
