Have Surplus Food? Donate It Today!
Table to Table’s food donors–with their donations of fresh, surplus fruits, vegetables, grains, meat, fish, and prepared foods–help us bridge the gap between food waste and food insecurity in northern New Jersey. We accept donations from grocers, restaurants, caterers, universities, farmers markets, and more. Food donations can be daily, weekly, or whenever fresh surplus is available. Getting started is easy! Click a button below and we’ll help you make it happen.

We accept viable food donations of all sizes, and all donations are kept within your local community agencies.
What are the Food Donation Guidelines?
Safety is paramount when rescuing food. Click the button below to learn about our guidelines for rescuing different categories of food, including: produce, frozen, prepared foods, baked goods, meat, poultry, & fish, and dairy products.
Tax Benefits from Donating Food?
When food goes to landfills instead of being donated, it is a missed opportunity in so many ways, including savings on storage, handling & transportation expenses–tax benefits too! Please contact Julie Kinner, Vice President of Operations, to learn more!
Are You Legally Protected as a Food Donor?
The U.S. Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Food Donation Act (Public Law 104-210) and the New Jersey Food Bank Good Samaritan Act (N.J.S.A. 24.4A-1 to -5) provide immunity from civil and criminal liability to donors of prepared and perishable food who give it to nonprofit organizations.
