Looking to build relationships with farmers in Northwest Indiana

Does your farm sometimes have surplus produce? Produce that is perfectly good to eat, but isn’t going to make it to market? Society of St. Andrew can help you harvest and transport the excess to help feed those struggling to access fresh produce.
It’s simple. Farmers give us a call when there is produce to donate. We reach out to volunteers and organize the logistics, transportation and training to harvest and deliver the produce to a hunger relief agency. We keep track of all the pounds donated and where they were donated. At the end of the year farmers will receive an itemized letter listing the total number of pounds for each product which can then be used for tax deduction purposes.

Since opening the Indiana office in January of 2018, with the help of over 700 volunteers, SoSA-Indiana has helped to save and distribute over 300,000 pounds of fresh food to Indiana’s hungry residents.

Tim has two hand made hoop houses that are 20ft wide x 50 ft wide, for sale.  These are similar to the farmers friend catapillar tunnels. 

These include the plastic, center line support, rib poles, rope, and ground post. 

Both tunnels for $1000.

We receive many black plastic floral buckets each week with our donations from grocery stores. While we use some of them, we are unable to use them all. They are free and available to anyone who wants them and can pick them up.

We get new ones each week, so they are always available. If interested, please send an email to lindsay@rafindianapolis.org.
