APPENDIX A:

Food Recovery on the Internet

Two possible approaches to finding gleaning and food recovery organizations and resources on the Internet are:

  1. General search of the World Wide Web
    A general search of the World Wide Web can be conducted using search tools such as YAHOO or LYCOS. When using these tools be aware that the terms "hunger" and "hunger resources" are more likely to identify the relevant organizations than the terms "gleaning" or "food recovery."

  2. Beginning at specific sites
    The following web sites are good starting points to search for gleaning and food recovery related web sites:

USDA Gleaning and Food Recovery Home Page:
http://www.usda.gov/fcs/glean.htm

World Hunger Year (see the site's "hunger and poverty" links) :
