What an exciting evening at the Redruth Charity Trust annual awards last night. Sharing the room with incredible people , hearing heart warming stories, beautiful singing voices, and from community groups, giving a real insight to the community cohesion in Redruth. Redruth Charity Trust work tirelessly attracting local sponsors to support organisations in Redruth. It was great to see Some familiar faces and representatives from organisations we support with fresh produce. Gleaning Cornwall were very grateful to receive £200 which will supply new flasks, these are used in the fields to provide well deserved hot refreshments to our dedicated volunteers after gleans. The money will also go towards providing PPE cut proof gloves to keep our ever growing team of volunteers safe. So a massive thank you again for a wonderful night.#redruthcharitytrust #regenerativefoodandfarming #communitysupport #redruth #support

This has been a bumper week for us at Gleaning Cornwall. Collaborating with local producers including Riviera Produce Ltd, Agricola Growers, and Plants for a future, along side some lovely local orchard owners, this week we have gleaned over 4 tonnes of fruit and vegetables! This has been harvested and distributed by our dedicated teams of volunteers to every corner of Cornwall, the moorland communities of Devon and to Plymouth where organisations are helping support those in food poverty. We are incredibly grateful to have such a supportive network.#community #vegtables #foodpovertyawareness #cornwallliving #foodforthought #nutritionforlife #localproduce #cornishproduce #foodpoverty #communitymatters

What a wonderful way to spend a Monday morning. With blue skies and occasional showers we were treated to the delights of a 30year old orchard full of Cornish variety apples. And wow, there some beauties. Its not all mud and brassicas, especially at the moment whilst we are lucky enough to be invited to some stunning Cornish gardens. With much gratitude to the team at #tresillianhouse not only for the apples but for the peak into the walled garden, shared with such a passion, knowledge and commitment.#applesofinstagram #orchards #community #foodpovertyawareness #nutrition #volunteeringopportunities #teamwork #gleaning #cornwalllife

What a day! Storm Floris may not have battered Cornwall but we certainly had the persistent rain…. That is until we headed out to the fields of Baldu to harvest the remnants of a broccoli crop. Netting an awesome bounty of 87 crates…. And a rogue Kale! Well done team Gleaning Cornwall, and Thank you to Simon Whear for donating the left over produce. Tiny but perfect. #broccoli#freshveg#nutrition#surplus #gleaning #fieldworkers #foodwasterecycling #feedingthoseinneed #cornwalluk #outdoors #sunshineaftertherain

Talk about a glean with a view! Gorgeous summer morning harvesting broccoli down West penwith this week. Hunting small but tasty produce from this scenic spot. Then gathering courgettes from nearby fields, these along with spuds and cauliflower making a massive 4 veg glean for the team at Gleaning Cornwall this week. All made possible by the power of our wonderful volunteers and generous and supportive farming community #community #farming #cornwalluk #volunteer #broccoli #courgettes #nutrition #foodpovertyawareness

Every days a fun day out with Gleaning Cornwall . What better way to iron out those harvesting backs than with a shimmy & shake, hailing the spring greens! Must be something in the air.#volunteer #fun #activities #gleaning #communityfirst #funinafield #harvest #joy #friendships #sunnydays #grattitude #cornwalluk

Thank you to Katie and the team at #heligangardens for inviting us. We really enjoyed hearing about the productive gardens. How lovingly your teams have restored the stunning walled garden, the produce you grow and how, how neat everything is. It was really inspiring to see so much growth, and a pleasure to share stories of what we do at #gleaningcornwall . Our volunteers were in awe of the gardens as we wandered through exotic plantings and enjoyed the explosive colours of the rhododendrons, camellias and magnolias. We look forward to returning later in the year, gleaning some produce and sharing growing tips. #gardens #cornwall #volunteeringisfun #daysout #springtime #collaboration #gleaning #walkingaround #joy #grattitude
