“Hungry Harvest provides an easily and logical avenue to send my off grade produce that larger retailers and other big produce industry players would never accept. It allows the grower a security blanket to receive a return for quality produce, while also ensuring that we are limiting, if not eliminating our waste on the fields. ”
