Donate Extra Produce

Got Extra Fruits and Veggies? Share the Bounty!

Are you a home gardener with more fresh fruits and vegetables than you can use? Are you a farmer with surplus crops? Are you a resident who simply purchased too much produce? If so, we could use your help. Through the WiN-WiN program, you can donate your surplus fruits and vegetables to help nourish local families and individuals in need.

Where Your Donations Go:
Your produce will support:

  • Manna Meals, which provides free weekly meals to the community.
  • Revive Life House, a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program serving more than 60 residents.
  • Jessamine County Food Pantry, serving individuals and families experiencing food insecurity.

Become a Recovery Volunteer

Help us to transport the produce to our partner organizations.

Help us to pick up the produce from our convenient drop-off locations and distribute it to our community partners. To become a recovery volunteer, you will need to sign up for a shift with our partner Glean Kentucky.

Each week there will be several volunteer shifts during which you can visit the drop off locations, pick up the donated produce and drive it to one of our partner sites so that it can be used to feed communities in need in Jessamine County. Get started at their website https://gleanky.org/volunteer-application.
