Food Forward is a volunteer powered grassroots group of Angelenos who care about reconnecting to our food system and making change around urban hunger.
HARVEST FOOD • FIGHT HUNGER • BUILD COMMUNITYWe convene at properties we have been invited to and harvest their excess fruits and vegetables, donating 100% to local food pantries across southern California. Combined, our numerous distribution partners provide food to over 40,000 clients a month across Southern California. Since forming in 2009, we have harvested hundreds of properties with 100% of what we pick going to feed the hungry. To see our total harvested poundage to date, see the counter on the home page!

I look around and see a group of people working peacefully together, all doing something just because it is good. Being happy sometimes is as simple as this." Charles, Volunteer
