Second Harvest is the largest food rescue organization in Canada and a global thought leader in food recovery.
We work across the supply chain from farm to retail to capture surplus food before it ends up in the landfill which negatively impacts our environment.
Every year, we recover millions of pounds of nutritious, unsold food — focusing on protein, dairy and produce — which we rescue before it becomes waste. We redistribute it to a broad network of over 4,000 social service organizations. Supported by hundreds of corporations, foundations, and the community at large, we rescue and redistribute enough food to provide thousands of meals a day in Canada.
Since 1985 we have rescued and delivered more than 177 million pounds of food, preventing over 75 million pounds of greenhouse gas equivalents from entering our atmosphere.
