“I have a garden and trees which produce far more food than we can possibly use. Forestr volunteers visited several times over the last few months to clean up a few trees and take surplus fruit and veggies away. We are so pleased that produce is not falling on the ground going to waste, and folks have access to wholesome food.”

– Lauri Jones – Jess Jones Farms, Dixon

“We are so incredibly blessed to receive these donations of extra produce, which provide healthy food to over 100 families every week. Thank you so much Solano-gleans for your service in helping fight hunger and for your generosity and hard work. “

“Running a small diversified farm is always a challenge. I do my very best to sell or utilize every last thing we produce, but there are still times when I have extra and I absolutely hate to see it go to waste.

I started working with ForestR in the summer of 2024 after they approached me at a farmers market and they have proved to be an excellent partner in making sure that all of our unused produce finds its way into hungry mouths.

It has always been easy to communicate with the team at ForestR and I’ve found them to be efficient in their work and respectful of our property and operations. Thank you for providing this service to our community.”

– Matt Wilke, Farmer and Fruit Donor from The Farm at Doyle’s End in Dixon

“Partnering with Forestr.org/solano-gleans is an absolute win-win! I could have never harvested and utilized all the lemons that my tree produced. I am so happy that the lemons from my tree are going to those in need.” 

“Grazyna from forestr.org was friendly and a pleasure to work with. She showed up at the time agreed. I showed her the tree with fruit ready now and those that would have fruit in the future.

I can easily just text her again when it’s ready. I have the pleasure of knowing my fruit won’t be wasted. She arranged everything with the organization making it available to those in need. Highly recommend it.”
