Surplus fresh produce is often left in the field post-harvest or not harvested due to staff, quality or price constraints. Nationally, pre-farm gate food waste has been estimated to 1.6 million tonnes annually 🤯 kentunion and unikentlive have partnered with producedinkent to set up a gleaning group with students and staff volunteers from the University. The gleaning group will work together with growers in Kent, picking surplus fresh produce left on the fields, and redistributing this to charities, community groups and food banks in the Canterbury area, including our very own Campus Pantry 💙 An amazing opportunity to gain new skills, and help towards the cost of living crisis and creating a better food system 🍎 Join us on 25th April from 5-6pm woodys.kent to hear more about gleaning and how you can become a volunteer with the Kent Gleaning Collective! 🤩 Link in bio for tickets to the info session 📲 #KentUnion #Kent #StudentsUnion #Students #Student #KentUni #UniKent #Universit...
