Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4D

“Other programs include the folllowing: supporting business program: allows retailers to join marin organic and become part of a powerful network of like-minded organizations providing local, organic food to consumers in marin county and beyond. Community events: a series of events where experts and authors from the field of organic agriculture present their work to and engage in discussion with the public. Food gleaning/access: marin organic partners with local organic farms to recover fresh produce that would otherwise get tilled under or composted because farmers would not make a profit by harvesting this food. In 2013 marin organic contributed over 10,000 pounds of fresh, organic produce to the san francisco/marin food bank and local food pantries, harvested by volunteers and staff. Marin organic also manages national gleaning day in order to broaden the scope of gleaning as a means to increase food security.”
