Solving Food Waste and Hunger!
Subscribe on iTunes! What do you do when your state has some of the highest food insecurity stats in the nation...while its citizens throw away pounds of food every day? Grow More, Give More and the Society of St. Andrew found the answer to both problems. Listen to find out how these hardworking volunteers are reallocating perfectly good food, which would have become waste, to feed our communities' most needy.
Listen to our Grow More, Give More podcast.


November is a time to give thanks. Join us this month as we share our gratitude for the countless individuals who work in and around agriculture. Their hard work makes our lives easier. Instead of toiling in a garden or on a farm, many of us can simply visit a grocery store or farmers market for food to eat. Even easier, we have the option to go out to our favorite restaurant.

Visit Pick TN Products' website to find how you can support local agriculture during this season of harvest and thanks.

Share what you are thankful for this November on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook with the post and hashtag below.
