HAH is recognized as the ultimate connector and collaborator within Washington’s hunger relief system. It partners with hunger relief organizations, packing and processing warehouses, large-scale farmers, small to mid-scale growers, transportation companies, and government agencies to bring more healthy food into the hunger relief pipeline. The food gathered through these partnerships includes truckload-sized donations (40,000 lbs) of imperfect yet healthy produce that farmers can’t sell; crops gleaned from farmers’ fields after harvest; and fresh, nutrient dense, culturally relevant produce grown by small to mid-scale growers specifically for their local food pantries and meal programs.
