Honeybear Brands ships thousands of apples to food shelves amid pandemic

Honeybear Brands is sharing its bountiful apple harvest with thousands of people who have limited access to healthy, fresh produce due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With high demand stressing food shelves across the country, Honeybear Brands is partnering with organizations focused on replenishing supplies.

Some of the apple donations are being generated through an Eat One Share One Pazazz Apple Challenge via social media. The challenge is simple. Share the Facebook post and Honeybear donates a fresh apple to a local food bank. Retail partners are getting on board by sharing the post and encouraging consumers to do the same – all with a collective goal of donating a 100,000 apples nationally.

Honeybear Brands is also donating 1,500 Pazazz apples as part of Health Fair 11’s You Matter Snack Pack initiative, which provides free nutritious snack bags to people directly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Health Fair 11, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving community health, will distribute 1,500 “You matter. Snack Packs” to four organizations: Twin Cities Mobile Market, Mary’s Place, Higher Ground, and People Serving People. Each organization provides basic food and shelter to people who were living on the margins of the economy even before the pandemic hit
