Gleaning Activities
The Garden Project administers a field gleaning program in the Lansing area. Fresh produce, which would otherwise go to waste, is harvested by volunteers to help feed the hungry. The Project organizes crews of volunteers to harvest produce at the request of area growers. The food is then distributed by staff to food pantries, human service organizations, and residents of subsidized housing.
