Quotient team members from across the country came together at America’s Grow-a-Row to make a difference in the fight against hunger. With a clear determination to help others, they banded together to plant 2,625 broccoli plants and harvest 2,000 pounds of onions for those in need.

They immediately delivered 500 pounds of onions to the Somerset Food Bank Network. The remainder of the produce was distributed to the Community FoodBank of New Jersey and AGAR’s Free Farm Markets.

Quotient also supported America’s Grow-a-Row with a very generous donation of $10,000 for the team building day in the field.

America’s Grow-a-Row, through its 6,000+ volunteers, plants, harvests and distributes over 1.2 million pounds of free produce to residents in need all across New Jersey each year.
