Fruta Feia nominated for LIFE Awards 2020

In 2015, when Fruta Feia was small and had only 3 delivery points, we got a EU’s LIFE funding for our FLAW4LIFE project. This project allowed us to get to where we are nowadays – 12 delivery points, 250 partner-farmers, over 6000 consumers that save 15 tons of food waste every week!

Given the success of the social and environmental results achieved, which exceeded the goals that we set, this project has now been nominated as one of the finalists for the LIFE 2020 Awards.

Watch the FLAW4LIFE video and vot for Fruta Feia here!

(Don't forget to confirm the vote in your e-mail account).

Closing of Braga's delivery point

It is with great regret that we announce the closing of Braga’s delivery point.

 

A few months ago, we were told that we had to leave the auditorium of the Parish Council of Ferreiros, which led us to a hard search for another place to make our deliveries in the city. This time, we needed a place in the city center, which guaranteed a minimum number of consumers in order to assure the financial sustainability of this delivery point. Unfortunately, we were not successful in this search.

 

It is with great regret that our fight against food waste due to appearance comes to an end in the city Braga.

 

To our associated consumers in Braga: it was very nice to have you close by and we have to you thank for your support to our project during this time, thank you very much!

How many times do you go to the supermarket and see people that from a bunch of bananas only select a few ones because the others look different or simply because they look too small?
