We started Imperfect Foods to save ugly produce. It felt wrong, and even a little bit silly, that fruits and veggies were getting tossed aside because they looked a little different. It also felt wrong because wasting less food is the number one way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions—and that’s a climate problem we can do something about. At Imperfect Foods, we deliver everything from produce to pantry staples, dairy, and meat directly to your front door. Our groceries, even those that are imperfect, are always delicious and fresh—and they are a fair value for farmers, the environment, and you. read more
