Testimonials

“[AmpleHarvest.org is]a terrifically positive message in a time when positive messages are in short supply.”

Michelle Obama speaking and writing about AmpleHarvest.org here.

“AmpleHarvest.org is one of the most innovative groups I’ve met.”

“AmpleHarvest.org… touched on an underrated problem in the food recovery world. How can individuals or institutions donate fresh food when they don’t know where to bring it?

“[AmpleHarvest.org is] a win-win model: the kitchen growers have the satisfaction of seeing their surplus food being eaten, and enjoyed. Impoverished pantry and shelter residents get to eat decent meals. And, down the road, the health care system saves money because the population is eating better, healthier, fare.”

“Within one hour of registering Community Resource Center on the AmpleHarvest.org website I received a call from a local family of four with 10 orange trees. I spoke with the mother of the family and she said that until she heard of AmpleHarvest.org her family was spending time cleaning up rotten fruit off the ground.”

“Because of AmpleHarvest.org, our food pantry got lots of lovely, delicious grapefruit. Before that I thought no one knew we were in existence. Thank you AmpleHarvest.org”

“AmpleHarvest.org has been a huge benefit to our partner agencies and has really helped getting fresh fruits to those in need.”

“We have been trying to find a good way to communicate to gardeners which food shelves they can donate to. I think AmpleHarvest.org is the missing link we have been looking for.”
