Staff member Jack Leng can tell you about the Wayland Market
shoppers who already have worked with the
Boston Area Gleaners
to rescue food from local farms.
"We organize volunteer trips to local farms to harvest high-quality fruits
and vegetables that would otherwise go to waste. We distribute the
nutritious produce to agencies serving families facing food insecurity."
Jack will be with us Saturday to answer your questions.
