  2. #Gleaning with #MidCoast #HungerPrevention Program reduces waste and increases community

    Maya Khalil, Posted July 14, 2025

    "This summer, I feel very lucky to be completing a fellowship with the #MerrymeetingGleaners group at Mid Coast Hunger Prevention Program. This fellowship, funded by #BowdoinCollege ’s McKeen Center for the Common Good, has provided me with knowledge and hands-on experience I will carry with me throughout college and my career. Before I began this fellowship, you could say I was 'gleaning-curious.' I was familiar with the basic concept — volunteers harvest surplus crops from farms, which they donate to #HungerRelief efforts — but I had never actually gleaned. Now, I glean three mornings a week, traveling to local farms to pick everything from strawberries to Swiss chard.

    "Gleaning is an elegant way to fight both #FoodWaste and #FoodInsecurity . Farming yields are inherently imprecise. They are influenced by weather, pests and many other factors outside of human control. That unpredictability, paired with a fast-moving economy, is challenging and often leads to surplus crops staying in the fields. Gleaning can rescue thousands of pounds of produce and provide fresh, local, nutritious meals to folks who may not be able to access them otherwise. It takes time, patience and hard work, but the process is powerful and rewarding. About halfway through the harvest season, we have rescued almost 3,000 pounds of produce, equivalent to about 2,500 meals! I am so grateful to the folks at #SixRiverFarm, #GoransonFarm and #HarvestTide #Organics who open their fields to this work."
