Lovin’ Spoonfuls is dedicated to facilitating the rescue and distribution of healthy, fresh food that would otherwise be discarded throughout Greater Boston and beyond. Breaking new ground in the food rescue movement, we connect community resources by linking grocery stores, produce wholesalers, and farms to local meal programs and social service entities serving those in need.
41 million Americans
struggle with food insecurity.
40% of all food produced in the
U.S. goes to waste each year.
Why should hunger relief stop at non-perishable food items when there is so much fresh food already available? We are the bridge between abundance and need, providing fresh, healthy food to our neighbors who need it most.
Food rescue offers a triple bottom line solution
Providing access to fresh, healthy food to more people.
Conserving the environment, protecting the planet.
Improving economic profits through donor tax breaks and reduced waste disposal costs.
Grocery stores, produce wholesalers, farmers markets, bakeries.
Refrigerated delivery vehicles, professionally trained drivers, mobile inventory tracking system.
Homeless shelters, soup kitchens, food pantries, domestic violence agencies, senior centers, after school programs, meal delivery programs.
Eating well is the bedrock of health. We provide access to nourishing food, helping people build healthy lives.
Food rescue is an essential part of the hunger relief equation. Lovin' Spoonfuls is the platform for Boston to join the changing conversation on food insecurity and food waste.
