Who We Are

Manna Market is a food rescue ministry based in Spring Lake Park, Minnesota. We partner with grocery stores, businesses, and community organizations to rescue good, usable food that might otherwise go to waste.

Through the dedication of our volunteers and community partners, we give that food a new purpose—sharing it with individuals and families throughout our communities, free of charge.

We believe good food shouldn't go to waste when it can be put to such meaningful use.

The Food Is Donated. Rescuing It Takes All of Us.

In 2025 alone, Manna Market rescued and distributed 5.9 million pounds of food, serving our community through more than 130,000 visits.

But here's something that surprises many people:

The food is donated. Rescuing it isn't free.

Behind every pound of rescued food are trucks on the road, drivers making pickups, volunteers sorting produce, refrigeration keeping food safe, and staff coordinating an incredibly complex operation.

Manna has accomplished extraordinary things with a lean paid staff and dedicated volunteers. But as the work has grown, so has the need for reliable financial support.

Doing more with less isn't the same as being sustainably funded.

BIG DREAMS. BIG OPPORTUNITY. BIG NEWS! 🎉

Thanks to some incredibly generous supporters, every donation will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $50,000, through December 31!

That means together, we have the opportunity to turn $50,000 into $100,000 to strengthen the work behind food rescue.

More food rescued. More communities reached. More opportunities to put good food to good use.
