For this unique project, we'll head to a farm in the DC area where we'll glean (harvest) surplus produce that would otherwise be left to waste in the fields. This will provide literally tons of free, fresh and nutritious food to the Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC) which serves those in need in our local area. Carpools will be arranged. When you RSVP, please indicate the metro station nearest to you! Closer to the date of the event we will learn which farm we will be gleaning at.
