Give Green - Make a Difference

Farmers Market LogoSecond Harvest Heartland is back at the Minneapolis Farmers Market! This program, which began in 2009, makes it easy for both growers and shoppers to donate produce to their neighbors in need. Last year, we collected 108,000 lbs of produce and want to gather even more this year.

You can help!

Your support can help ensure everyone in Minnesota has enough to eat—this summer, and always. Consider purchasing an extra bag of food to donate. We also accept donations from home gardens!

Find us at the Minneapolis Farmers Market every Sunday until the market closes in October.
