Great Food for a Great Cause

A staggering 40% of food produced in the U.S. is wasted. Vindeket Foods partners with local grocers to rescue and distribute totally good food that would otherwise end up at the dump! Vindeket is set up so you can volunteer or donate in exchange for your groceries. I’ve personally shopped and volunteered at Vindeket and have had a blast on every occasion. I find my trips to Vindeket to be like a little food adventure. I consistently leave feeling good about putting totally useful, tasty food on my table that would have otherwise ended up getting thrown out due to nearing or just passing the (often somewhat arbitrary) sell-by date. Vindeket is also a wonderful gathering place for like-minded people from all walks of life. The Fort Collins community owes a huge thank you to founder Nathan Shaw for bringing such a wonderful resource to the area.
