Fish and loaves...
...and your garden
"If one loaf of bread could feed many people, imagine what your garden can do!"
What We Do
The AmpleHarvest.org Campaign is a national effort utilizing the Internet that enables 40+ million Americans who grow food in home gardens to easily donate their excess harvest to registered local food pantries spread across all 50 states.
Why We Do It
One out of six Americans needs food assistance, but can't get fresh produce from the local food pantry, while, millions of American homeowners grow more food in their backyard gardens than they can possibly use.
It Doesn't Have to Be This Way!
AmpleHarvest.org envisions an America where millions of gardeners eliminate malnutrition and hunger in their own community using only their backyard gardens.

Millions of Christians grow more food in their backyard gardens than they can possibly use, preserve or give to friends.
The AmpleHarvest.org Campaign diminishes hunger in America by enabling backyard gardeners to share their excess garden produce with neighborhood food pantries and food banks.
A Few Ways You Can Help
At your next Wedding, Christening, Baptism, Confirmation, formal dinner or other special event, use fruit instead of flowers for the centerpieces. Then find a local food pantry here and donate the remaining whole fruit.
