This listing is Boston Area Gleaners, a nonprofit that harvests surplus crops left in the field after a farm's commercial pick is done and routes the produce to families facing food insecurity around Boston.

The organization estimates roughly a third of Massachusetts households deal with food insecurity, which is the problem the gleaning model is built to chip away at.

Hudson Hives Our Story Hudson Hives is a family business with family values. The seed of our business was planted when Stephen on a visit to Ireland peeked into his cousin’s beehives and was intrigued by the world of beekeeping.

A few years later the Town of Hudson started its first farmers market where we sold our excess honey. People asked how they could conti

Beekeeping, and honey production are some of the oldest practices in civilization. The ancient Egyptians kept bees,
