GleanSLO

A community of people concerned with sharing fresh, local, healthy produce with our neighbors in need.

Many commercial growers and private homeowners have fruit trees, bushes, vines or entire orchards and fields that produce more fresh fruit or vegetables than they can harvest. We invite them to register their crops online. Donations are tax deductible. Working closely with growers, GleanSLO employees or volunteer leaders organize harvests to gather the fresh produce. Volunteer pickers sign up online, checking off a liability waiver that protects crop owners. The produce collected is distributed by the Food Bank Coalition to our neighbors in need. Over 44,000 San Luis Obispo County residents are served by the Food Bank yearly.
