Bridging the Gap Between Food Waste & Hunger
Every year 3 billion pounds of food go to waste in New Jersey–while, nearly 1.1 million residents struggle to get food on the table. Table to Table, NJ’s first and largest food rescue nonprofit, addresses both challenges with one efficient solution by rescuing surplus, nutritious food that would otherwise be wasted and delivering it free to our neighbors in need throughout Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, and Passaic counties.
Rescue Food
With 6 refrigerated trucks and hundreds of volunteers mobilized through our I-Rescue App, we pick up and deliver thousands of pounds of nutritious food every day.
Our Story
Reduce Waste
Reducing food waste in landfills cuts methane and other greenhouse gas emissions, helping the planet.

How Table to Table Makes a Difference
This food helps a lot because I am not able to work right now because I am pregnant and it is a high-risk pregnancy.

It helps a lot because food is very expensive. I love fresh vegetables and fruit. It’s important to eat fresh produce. If I didn’t come here, I wouldn’t be able to afford it.
Nube
We just arrived from Ecuador two weeks ago. I don’t have a job yet and we are not eligible for food stamps. This food helps us a lot.

I can feed my family. My husband was working at a gas station, and he was shot while at work in 2020. Since then, he’s been in a nursing home. He cannot speak. He cannot walk. (He is bedridden).
