    Hidden Harvest finds new use for food left behind

    Healthy Harvest is helping those who can't afford fresh produce by gathering surplus fresh fruits and vegetables from fields and orchards and redistributing them. NBC's Dr. Nancy Snyderman reports.

    Friday on "NBC Nightly News," Dr. Nancy Snyderman reported on an organization that's salvaging food left behind on fields and orchards, providing free produce to those who can't afford it. Click here to visit the Hidden Harvest website. 

    Christy Porter founded Hidden Harvest an organization that employs the working poor to rescue produce left in farmers' fields to feed the hungry.

    I think every city should adopt a similar program. Crops shouldn't be plowed under when there are so many people, especially the elderly, on limited incomes who could benefit from them.
