    • About Us

    Forgotten Harvest was formed in 1990 to fight two problems: hunger and waste.

    Forgotten Harvest “rescued”45.5 million pounds of food last year by collecting surplus

    prepared and perishable food from 455 sources, including grocery stores, fruit and

    vegetable markets, restaurants, caterers, dairies, farmers, wholesale food distributors

    and other Health Department-approved sources. This donated food, which would

    otherwise go to waste, is delivered free-of-charge to more than 280 emergency food

    providers in the Metro Detroit area.
