Yes, we do!

• Sliding Scale Program: In an effort to reduce food waste, our food prep members take foods that would not normally sell like overripe foods or imperfect produce to create super appetizing dishes of their own choice. These ready-made meals are then sold on a sliding scale of $1-$5, meaning that you pay what you want to or are able to pay!

• “Pay it Forward” Program: The "Pay It Forward" program lets patrons purchase vouchers worth $1, $3, or $5 that future customers can then use to purchase food, produce, and other store items.
