FeedHV

FeedHV

FeedHV is a regional food rescue and harvesting network dedicated to meeting the needs of neighbors while mitigating the impacts of food waste. Through its network of donors, volunteers and agencies, FeedHV rescues viable food products and redirects them to non-profit agencies with food assistance programs throughout Dutchess, Columbia, Greene, Orange, Putnam, Sullivan and Ulster counties. The Hudson Valley is a patchwork of cities, hamlets and villages, all with their own special flavor and needs. The FeedHV network connects these communities through its food rescue program and as a result, feeds more throughout the Valley.

Through its web-based and mobile application powered by ChowMatch, FeedHV links food donors of prepared but unserved food and fresh produce (including farms, restaurants, catering services, grocery stores, hospitals, universities, corporations and more) to nonprofit organizations with food assistance programs (such as food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters) through the efforts of a network of volunteers who transport, harvest and process donated food. Through ChowMatch, FeedHV enhances and streamlines the good work of businesses, agencies, and organizations already doing food recovery work.

Without the generous support of these partners, the FeedHV network would not be possible:

• Community Foundations of the Hudson Valley (CFHV)

• Mother Cabrini Health Foundation

• Ascienzio Family Foundation

• Local Economies Project

• NoVo Foundation

• Ralph E. Ogden Foundation

• Louis Greenspan Charitable Trust

• The Thompson Family Foundation

• The Bruderhof Family

• And anonymous individuals and families
