Fresh Food Connect
Laura Lavid's Company Details
Fresh Food Connect aims to create a more healthy, sustainable, and local food system by creating a market for homegrown food. An increasing amount of food is grown in backyards, patios, and community gardens in urban environments across the world, yet there is virtually no market for this food aside from abandoning an overgrown gourd on your neighbor's front step. Fresh Food Connect seeks to give this food the market it deserves, in turn making our food systems more local and less wasteful. Fresh Food Connect licenses its technology to urban agriculture and food rescue organizations who use the mobile-app to coordinate the aggregation of home grown produce to be donated, sold, or used to otherwise create positive change in the local operator's food system. Individual gardeners sign up on the Fresh Food Connect app to donate their backyard grown produce that would perhaps otherwise go to waste. Fresh Food Connect conveniently helps solve "the zucchini problem" by picking up produce from the growers location when the grower indicates they have food.
