WASTE LESS. FEED MORE.

We rescue food that would otherwise be discarded and deliver it to a network of food pantries, thereby helping to feed individuals and families in need. Our landfills are overflowing and emitting methane gas into the environment. Did you know that 40% of the content of these landfills is discarded food? And yet, food insecurity, right in our neighborhoods, is growing. Inflation, reduction in government benefits, and poverty are causing people to make critical choices in order to feed their families.

You’re not alone

Since our founding in 2020 we have rescued over 8,700,000 pounds of food that otherwise would have ended up in a landfill.

Waste Less & Feed More

In partnership with Sharing Excess, Metro Food Rescue is honored to announce that we have opened a brand new Produce Sorting Terminal downtown in Detroit!

We got you

We now provide to over 85 food pantries and soup kitchens with food rescued from over 90 partners yearly.

Testimonials

What They Say

“A Lifeline When We Needed It Most” After my husband lost his job, I didn’t know how we’d feed our kids. The food pantry gave us more than groceries—they gave us hope and dignity during our toughest time. The volunteers treated us with such kindness. We’re back on our feet now, and I’ll never forget their compassion.”

Emma Odinson

“Healthy Food for My Family” I was amazed by the quality and variety of food available. Fresh produce, proteins, and pantry staples help me prepare nutritious meals for my children. The pantry doesn’t just fill our cupboards—it supports our health and wellbeing. I’m so grateful this resource exists in our community.

DIAN ANNAKIN

“More Than Just Food” Coming to the food pantry connected me with other services I didn’t even know I needed. The staff helped me find job training programs and healthcare resources. They treat everyone with respect—no judgment, just genuine care. This place truly strengthens our entire neighborhood.
