Behind the Counter with The Food Czar: Table to Table

Behind the Counter with The Food Czar shines a spotlight on Table to Table, New Jersey’s first food and most successful food rescue organization.

Dedicated to reducing food waste and feeding those who need it most, Table to Table partners with restaurants, supermarkets, and other food providers to rescue fresh, high-quality, and nutritious food. This rescued food is then delivered to Table to Table’s community partners like soup kitchens, homeless shelters, and senior centers. Behind the Counter with The Food Czar had the pleasure of sitting down with Heather Thompson, Executive Director of Table to Table, to explore the issue of food insecurity and the vital importance of providing healthy meals to our neighbors in need. We also discuss how you can get involved and become a food rescue hero with their volunteer-driven app, Table to Table I-Rescue. Together, we can fight hunger, reduce waste, and create a stronger, more compassionate community—because every meal matters, and every action counts!
