Shared Plate will revolutionize how Fort Bend County addresses hunger and food waste. By partnering with farmers’ markets, grocery stores, restaurants, and households, we’ll rescue surplus food and transform it into nutritious meals. Our community kitchens will not only feed those in need but also host free cooking classes, fostering sustainability and cultural exchange.
