Congratulations to everyone involved to enable DGM to have donated over 2 million meals worth of produce to FareShare.
The donated vegetables include celeriac, chicory, pak choi, fennel and courgettes. This produce provides valuable nutrients to people facing food insecurity around the UK. In addition to this, DGM colleagues have also been working with FareShare to help them with content including recipe ideas and education on how to store the produce. Great collaboration and teamwork by all.
FareShare collects the surplus produce and then redistributes it to their network of thousands of charities and community groups all over the country. These groups turn the vegetables into hot meals or add it to food parcels.
Emma Brown, FareShare Commercial Manager said: “We are so grateful to DGM Growers, who have consistently sent us surplus produce since 2019. It is invaluable to be able to offer the charities we work with a range of produce such as celeriac, pak choi and fennel. Thank you to all at DGM Growers.”
