Dandelion Kitchen

Dandelion Kitchen works to alleviate food insecurity and reduce food waste in our community. We use fresh ingredients recovered from local food markets to cook beautiful, nourishing meals for people in need.

We prepare vegetarian meals, packaged as single servings, from fresh ingredients. Almost all of the produce we work with is "recovered" from the waste stream. In other words, food that would otherwise be destined for landfills: nectarines that have bruised because they are perfectly ripe; bunches of greens that have but a few wilted leaves; and cases of tomatoes that might have a soft spot or two but are juicy and full of flavor. Everything we cook is made from scratch, packaged, and distributed to people in our community.
