Mission Milestone: 1 Million Pounds Rescued

We’re proud to share that we’ve officially rescued 1 MILLION POUNDS of locally-grown produce from becoming food waste! Every pound rescued is a pound that Retaaza paid a local farmer a fair price for — always at our farmer-first prices — and saved from becoming food waste. No donations of produce expected from our growers — ever. Just actual cash in their pockets for their hard work.
