food recovery networks

Food recovery networks are organized systems that collect surplus food from restaurants, grocery stores, farms, and events that would otherwise go to waste. They then safely distribute this food to food banks, shelters, and community organizations to help feed people in need. These networks aim to reduce food waste, support food security, and promote environmental sustainability by ensuring edible food reaches those who need it instead of ending up in landfills. Overall, they play a vital role in creating a more efficient and compassionate food system.
