In the age of free two-day shipping and groceries on demand, it may still be shocking to know that many low-income residents of cities still suffer from a scarcity of affordable or quality fresh food. These are food deserts, and they still exist in thralling metropolises like New York City and Atlanta. Host Mangesh Hattikudur speaks to growers and organizations who are growing for good. These are community members and outsiders who introduce sustainable gardening solutions to help communities gain access to fresh produce and healthy foods. In this episode, Mango checks in with Kamal Bell, founder of Sankofa Farms, and Gary Oppenheimer, founder of AmpleHarvest.Org, and learns about what they've been doing to combat food apartheid.

We’re into that time of the summer when, with a very serious look in her eye, and wearing a tomato-stained apron, my wife sternly says: "Next year, don’t plant so many cherry tomato plants!" In my defense, there were only five cherry or grape-sized tomato plants in the ground this year: Sungold, Sweet Million, Gardeners Delight, Juliet and Valentine. Still, my wife is the one who has to do something with all those tomatoes. So, after spending the better part of a Sunday in a hot kitchen roasting tomatoes, I can understand her point of view.Are you suffering from tomato burnout? Zucchini overload? A cornucopia of cucumbers? If so, you are not alone. If you’re a long time listener to the Garden Basics podcast, you might be asking yourself as your lugging in another bucket full of backyard produce…"didn’t I hear an episode about food banks and food pantries that gladly welcome excess garden produce?" Here then, for you, and for many many others in the weeks to come, an expanded encore edition of our interview with Gary Oppenheimer, the founder of AmpleHarvest.org. For everyone else who will be consuming their own tomato harvests, here's a link to that nifty garden wagon pictured on today's podcast...perfect for hauling tomatoes to the kitchen.Maybe afterwards I can get my wife to share her roasted tomato recipe on the air with us. And after listening to it, you just might be in the market for a convection oven. And a water bath canner.More information about safe water bath canning.In today's Q&A segment, a listener is wondering about the dimensions and materials of the raised beds pictured on the Garden Basics title page. Wonder no more...Debbie Flower talks about what to do when your cool season vegetables begin to bolt when the weather gets too warm.

"No food left behind" is the goal of ampleharvest.org in order to have a healthier and by extension, wealthier America. Listen in as Gary Oppenheimer the Founder & Executive Director shares his story of how he saw a problem and connected the dots to bring over 8500 food pantries across America to local gardeners so their bounty could be shared.

By Susan Miller You grew way too many tomatoes this year. Your zucchini went crazy. And what in world will you do with all those cucumbers? What if you could donate all your extra veggies? “The gardeners across America hate wasting food,” says Gary Oppenheimer founder of an innovative online matching service called AmpleHarvest.org. He is a lifelong gardener who once saw his own bountiful backyard as both a blessing and a curse. “I found out the hard way,” he laughs, “you can only give so much zucchini to friends and still call the them a friend.” So along with fellow growers he devised a solution: connect local backyard gardeners with food pantries, women’s shelters or feeding programs that would welcome fresh vegetables.

How do we reduce our food waste while feeding those who are food insecure? Hear what Gary Oppenheimer, Founder and Executive Director of Ampleharvest.org has to say. 40% of the US food supply is wasted while 12% of Americans are food insecure. Gary Oppenheimer has found an effective way of solving the mismanagement of food waste by making it easy for the millions of backyard gardeners to donate their extra produce to local food pantries.

Gary Oppenheimer, founder and Executive Director of AmpleHarvest.org, explains his organization's mission to enlist backyard gardeners to fight food waste by connecting them to local food pantries.

Food pantries and food drives are one of the great staples of American charity.  They are everywhere, in cities big and small.  But there’s an aspect to them that never occurred to me until I started talking to our guest, Gary Oppenheimer. Having grown a cucumber plant or two in my life, I am familiar with how one can have too much of a very good thing.  What if home gardeners had a convenient, easy way to share extra food with people in need?  Our guest has created a way to do just that.  We’ll talk to Gary and learn about the problem of food waste, the effect it has on global warming, and how we can all take a crack at solving it.  I love it when I come across a great idea, and Gary, through AmpleHarvest.org, is going to tell us all about his.
