Food recovery of the week: 792 gallons of lactose-free milk! Many of our partners are most excited to receive dairy and we're grateful to be able to meet this need, thanks to a generous donation from Garelick Farms.

Orders are now open for Food Link long-sleeve shirts and sweatshirts! We have designs featuring the Food Link logo and a special design drawn by Food Link's own Program Assistant, Bridget Wright. A portion of the proceeds will go towards supporting our food rescue program. Place your order by March 18th: https://lnkd.in/eiNwaPjT

Thank you to Fallon Health for awarding Food Link a $7,500 Community Impact Grant to support sourcing and distributing culturally-relevant foods! We appreciate Fallon Health's continued dedication to helping us create a more equitable food system.

Food Link envisions a world in which everyone has abundant nourishing food and a food system in which no edible food goes to waste. Around 70% of the food we rescue and distribute is nutrient-dense – protein, dairy, produce – working toward making our vision a reality.
