Table Talk Episode 4 Embracing Imperfection: Montclair State’s Garden and the Ugly Food Movement
In the newest episode of “Table Talk,” we talk about ugly food and go behind the scenes with Brittney Portes from the Montclair State University Community Garden to explore the vibrant world of sustainability, the intriguing concept of ugly food, and the rich diversity of fruits and vegetables cultivated right on campus.
Discover how this thriving garden is more than just a place for plants—it’s a hub for fostering community, promoting environmental stewardship, and challenging conventional beauty standards in produce.

As New Jersey’s first and largest food rescue, our mission is to reduce food waste and provide nourishment to our food-insecure neighbors throughout North Jersey. We rescue millions of pounds of fresh food annually that would otherwise be wasted and deliver it to partner organizations who support the nearly 1 million people in our area who need it most.
Together, we can reduce food waste in our home and make a positive impact on the planet. Every little bit of effort—no matter how small–leads to change.
