      <Desc>Farm to Family ProgramThe Farm to Family program plays a vital role in delivering fresh fruits and vegetables to people in need throughout California. Working with growers, packers and food banks in every part of the state, CAFB provides surplus and "cull" (e.g., misshapen or cosmetically blemished) fruits and vegetables to its 43 member food banks and other select partners. The program has been an overwhelming success, increasing its distribution of fresh produce delivered to 152 million pounds in 2015, while allowing low-income Californians to include healthful fresh foods in their diet. In 2015, this distribution was valued at $82,000,000. Because CAFB acts as an intermediary agent on behalf of its member food banks, this valuation is not recognized as a contribution.</Desc>
