    Alleviate Food Waste & Hunger! San Mateo Farmers Market, Sunnyvale & Belmont Farmers Markets

    Farmer Markets want to help! Do you? Volunteer with Peninsula Food Runners on Saturdays at the San Mateo Farmers Market located at the College of San Mateo, the Sunnyvale Farmers Market or Sundays at the Belmont Farmers Market. Peninsula Food Runners volunteers are asked to bring 5-6 smaller empty boxes and at 12:45pm, distribute them to vendors who wish to donate. Beginning at 1:00pm, vendors will give you unsold produce that you will deliver to nonprofits that serve those in need. Please visit www.peninsulafoodrunners.org to sign up and learn more about our nonprofit, started in 2013. You may also email support@peninsulafoodrunners.org for more information.
