Established in 2011, Fair Food is a rescue and repurposing organisation that recovers surplus food otherwise bound for the landfill, and creates nourishing meals for West Aucklanders in need. Dame Cindy and Dr Davies visited the team this morning to help with baking the Queen’s Banana Bread and cooking a vegetable soup. Fair Food has grown exponentially since 2020, making 1.8 million meals from 621,720 kgs of rescued food in 2022 alone. They also offer cooking classes in the community. This year Tracey Pirini, Fair Food’s head of Operations and Relationships, was a medallist in the Kiwibank Local Hero category.
