On Tuesday, October 20, 2015, individuals from a variety of backgrounds met at the Quad Cities Food Hub to learn about and discuss food rescue. The 2015 Food Rescue Workshop was the inaugural Food Rescue Partnership event. Several organizations across Iowa taught food establishments how to get started, explained how to develop policies and procedures, shared ideas to motivate staff, informed leaders where to donate, and provided a food rescue resource kit. A panel discussion provided an overview of food donation partnerships between Outback Steakhouse and Kings Harvest and Ross’ Restaurant with Sacred Heart and Café on Vine.
