Meet James Kanoff, Ben Collier, Will Collier and Aidan Reilly. Learn how they created The Farmlink Project to combat hunger and heal the planet by linking farmers to food banks. The nonprofit, grassroots organization run by 250 volunteers, was just awarded the 2021 Congressional Medal of Honor Service Award. Due to the effects of COVID-19, over 54 million people were experiencing food insecurity. At the same time, the four founders read an article in the New York Times and learned that fresh food was going to waste on farms and food banks were running on empty. So they decided to do something about it. The Farmlink Project connects farms that have a surplus of fresh, nutritious produce to communities in need with the added bonus of decreasing greenhouse gas emissions!
Hear how they are addressing challenges of food waste, food insecurity and the environment--incredibly inspiring! You may have seen them on Today Show, CNBC, Washington Post and more. This lively conversation from the Crazy Amazing Humans podcast with Katrina Carlson and Jefferson Denim will inspire you and give you hope for the future.
Be sure to share this episode with anyone who may benefit from it. And remember that every small kindness has the potential to create a Crazy Amazing Human experience, one person at a time. You have the power to create that every day. And we, at Crazy Amazing Humans, are in your corner, we’re rooting for you, and really appreciate you as part of our community and we think YOU are crazy amazing!
