The Gleaning Network is a Feedback project

The gleaning toolkit is brought to you by Feedback, the organisation who created the UK’s Gleaning Network.

The Gleaning Network is just one of Feedback’s many projects and campaigns, through which we aim to regenerate nature by transforming our food systems.

Interested to find out more about our work, and how you can get involved? Please visit our website – we’d love to hear from you.
