How We Impact the Community

Feeding It Forward is a local non-profit organization working to reduce food waste and alleviate hunger in Napa County through collaborative efforts. We rescue good food that might otherwise be thrown away, and get it to those who might otherwise go hungry.

Our volunteers and staff pick up excess and leftover food from restaurants, food markets, grocery stores, and festivals. We then safely transport and distribute the food to other organizations that focus on feeding Napa County residents. Clients who benefit from our food recovery are affordable housing residents, farm workers, homeless shelters, and the working low-income.

Feeding It Forward works with a network of over 45 Napa County community-based organizations that provide services to our most vulnerable and hardest-hit populations. We are proud of our partnerships to help feed those in need while reducing food waste and its corresponding environmental impacts.

Testimonial

Feeding It Forward provides Valley Lodge Apartments much-needed resources. Residents genuinely look forward to the weekly visits. They’re offered healthy, fresh, and prepared foods, often items that would normally be out of reach. The ability to choose what they take home brings dignity, and each visit feels thoughtful and community-driven.
