Food Rescue
Since 2008, Food Rescue has collected soon-to-expire, fresh, healthy food, and distributed it to the 70+ food pantries and community meal sites of the Northwest Food Coalition on the same day, at no cost to the pantries. Assist us in increasing access to healthy food and reducing food waste through food repack (times vary) and healthy harvest gleaning (times vary).
