Washington Gleaning Network
The Washington Gleaning Network connects gleaning programs across Washington state, where volunteers harvest surplus produce from farms, orchards, and gardens and get it to food banks, meal programs, and neighbors. We support gleaners with shared resources, peer connection, and statewide coordination, so the people doing this work aren’t doing it alone. Sign up below to follow along.

This Gleaning Network Toolkit is a comprehensive guide developed by an Americorps Harvest VISTA for communities looking to build or strengthen their gleaning movement. Based on the work of the Washington Gleaning Network, it provides practical steps, resources, and real-world examples on assessment, outreach, sustainability, and more, for how we did this work.
Please have a look through our accumulation of a variety of gleaning resources from templates to legal issues to guidebooks.
