For each friend you refer, we'll also add to our fund for harvesting and donating gluts of veg to FareShare South West, who fight hunger by redistributing surplus food. Help us feed those in need, and help friends live life on the veg!

Fighting hunger & tackling food waste

For every friend you refer to Riverford, we'll add to our fund for FareShare South West - the region's biggest food charity, who fight hunger by redistributing surplus food.

This fund will be used to harvest, transport and donate crops from small-scale growers experiencing unplanned and overwhelming gluts; crops that would otherwise have gone to waste in the field.

Across the year, this project will help us donate over 40,000 portions of fruit and veg!¹

We've always had a robust system for using up surplus fruit and veg that makes it to Riverford - whether it's cooked in our staff canteen, or donated to our charity partners, such as Food in Community.

This new project with FareShare will help us unlock a different kind of food waste.

Feeding those in need, preventing food waste, and helping small family farmers to make the most of a bumper crop. It's win, win, win.

Who are FareShare South West?

FareShare South West redistributes surplus food to schools and charities, fighting hunger across the region - including in Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, and right up into Gloucestershire. Last year, they rescued and redistributed food for more than three million meals.

They're an independent charity, but part of the greater FareShare network. Any food they can't distribute to local charities, they'll send on to another of their FareShare partners. That way, nothing goes to waste - and whenever we have a glut of carrots, beans or broccoli, we know it'll reach people in poverty right across the UK.
