Connecting Farmers & Eaters
The path food travels — the food system — includes everything from growing and harvesting to processing, packaging, transporting, selling, eating, and disposing of food. Our mission is to grow that system to be sustainable for both the farmers and eaters in our region. We offer markets and transparent enterprise systems that help New England farmers, fishers, and food producers reach more customers and reduce waste. And we work with the community through outreach, incentives, educational and hunger relief programs to increase the accessibility and affordability of fresh, local foods.

This week, our Hope’s Harvest team and 6 incredible volunteers gleaned 660 pounds of rhubarb from @littleriverfarmri—all distributed to 6 hunger relief agencies across Rhode Island. ❤️
Fun fact: rhubarb is technically a vegetable, even though it’s most often used like a fruit in pies, jams, and desserts! Its bright pink stalks are packed with flavor (but don’t eat the leaves — those aren’t edible!).
Every glean helps connect fresh, local food with neighbors who can use it most, while also supporting farmers and ensuring good food doesn’t go to waste.
We’re always looking for more farm partners throughout the growing season! If you’re a farmer with surplus crops, fields to glean, or already-harvested produce available for donation, we’d love to hear from you. Reach out and help us keep fresh local food flowing to communities across RI! 🚜🥬
