Food Recovery in Marin County: By rescuing 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 climate change.

Our Volunteers

Our volunteer food runners have donated more than 33,000 hours of their time thus far, and are from all walks of life in Marin County. Working adults, high school students, retired adults, parents and children, couples, you name it. And volunteers who help us build the organization are diverse as well, helping us recruit food donors, manage publicity, design our materials, write grants, and many other projects. Here are many of the 300+ people on the ExtraFood team. And here is a brief video celebrating their amazing work in our community.

To our delight, Lee has quickly become one of our go-to volunteers for filling food trips in the Southern Marin area. Undeterred by the prospect of making multiple stops on a single food trip, she has happily volunteered to do our famous “Southern Marin Coffee Buzz” food trip – which requires picking up donations from up to 6 different coffee shops in Southern Marin –many times. We are so grateful for Lee’s commitment to helping us end food waste and hunger in Marin.
