Are you an extension master gardener? We need you!
With your expertise and outreach as an Extension Master Gardener, you can make a large impact on hunger in your community.
AmpleHarvest.org connects home growers to food pantries, to help increase food security and overall health in America. We encourage you to donate fresh produce to a food pantry near you! Many Extension Master Gardeners not only have their own home gardens but also help manage demonstration gardens and community gardens. You can increase the health of your community by donating the fresh produce grown in those plots to a local food pantry.

Donate fresh produce.
Food pantries are in constant need of donations of fresh food, to move away from so many canned goods and processed foods and offer healthier options to their clients. This is where home and community gardeners can make the largest impact!

Spread the cause!
We hope that when you encounter a gardener that has an abundant harvest, that you’ll send them to us so we can help them get that food to families in need. AmpleHarvest.org is a non-profit group, encouraging gardeners to donate fresh produce to a local food pantry. All donations are tax-deductible and go directly to increasing food security in your community and across America.
