Food Recovery in Marin County: By picking up excess fresh food from businesses and immediately delivering it to nonprofits serving Marin’s most vulnerable children, adults, and families, we address the critical issues of hunger, wasted food, and global warming.

An 80-bed shelter for single homeless adults – the largest in the county – New Beginnings combines shelter, job training, and work experience opportunities. Their Fresh Starts Culinary Academy welcomes residents and students from the community into a job-training program in their state-of-the-art kitchen. Students intern at the Jackson Cafe in downtown San Rafael, a partnership with Whistlestop, as well as at FSCA’s chef events and in other venues. We have been working with New Beginnings since our very first week of operation and we’re proud to support their work to help people lift themselves out of homelessness.
