So it's not even about trying to sell the food instead of giving it away.

It's about preventing people from giving away food at scale at all, so they'd rather destroy the volunteers' farm than just leave it be.

This has gotten real ugly real fast.

Yeah. It's fucking disgusting what's going on. A lot of people relied on that produce. It was also EXCELLENT quality. It's a damn shame. That food bank does so much good for my community. I even relied on it for a few weeks after I lost my last job.
