Epicure is Proud to Partner with Second Harvest

In Canada today over 10 million people are food insecure and nearly 1 in 4 people in don’t know where their next meal is coming from.

Epicure is proud to partner with Second Harvest to help work towards’s their mission is to keep food where it belongs: on plates and out of landfills.

Second Harvest is Canada’s largest food rescue organization and a global thought leader on food waste and perishable food redistribution. It rescues unsold surplus food from thousands of food businesses from across the supply chain to redistribute it to non-profits in every province and territory. This prevents harmful greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere while improving access to nutrition for millions of Canadians experiencing food insecurity. Beyond food rescue and redistribution, Second Harvest is deeply involved in advocacy, research, training and education. Its groundbreaking reports, such as “The Avoidable Crisis of Food Waste,” provide critical data and insights to inform public policy and educate the public on sustainable food systems.

Second Harvest is committed to driving systemic change, helping to shape policies and practices that reduce food waste and address its role in climate change, while also supporting communities by providing them with the food they need.

This year Epicure has donated over $5k in cash and this Giving Tuesday Epicure has pledged to donate a meal for every order made. We are honoured to be able to contribute in this way and grateful for our partnership with Second Harvest.
