About This Organization

529831_10151425448610580_846466631_nHeadquartered in Boston, MA, Lovin’ Spoonfuls facilitates the rescue and distribution of fresh, perishable, and prepared foods that would otherwise be thrown away and wasted. They deliver this food to local crisis centers, soup kitchens and other social service entities that feed hungry people. Lovin’ Spoonfuls utilizes a direct distribution system where their fleet of refrigerated trucks pick up healthy, perishable foods from retail vendors and deliver it directly to meal centers within the same day. Their focus on fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains helps their beneficiaries to consistently provide food insecure clients with healthy and wholesome meals while providing relief to their operating budgets. Since 2010, the Lovin’ Spoonfuls team has rescued and distributed more than 6,500,000 pounds of fresh food in the Boston area, reaching over 35,000 people each week across Eastern Massachusetts.

    ABOUT THE GUIDE

    The James Beard Foundation, Food Tank, and Valrhona, along with a prestigious advisory group of food system experts, developed the “Good Food Org Guide.”

    This definitive Guide highlights nonprofit organizations that are doing exemplary work in the United States in the areas of food and agriculture, nutrition and health, hunger and obesity, and food justice.

    Only nonprofit, scholarly, and municipal initiatives have been selected in order to spotlight efforts that are focused on community building and engagement, advocacy, and service.
