Our volunteers have been hard at work gleening fruit and veg across mid and west Cornwall but we need to grow our team. So far this year we have rescued over 35 tons of produce that ordinarily would have rotted in the field. This has provided a vital lifeline to families accross the county who are facing food poverty.
Gleaning volunteer find it fun and hugely rewarding. It gives a chance to get outside and do something positive. The last 2 years have left many people feeing isolated and afraid to socialise. Gleaning gives a chance to meet with others in a safe, healthy and rewarding environment
