Saving Israel’s Farms: Special Interview with Food Rescue Org ‘Leket’s’ Joe Gitler Dec 30, 2024

Show notes

Farms are suffering in Israel and while food rescue organization ‘Leket’ has primarily been working to get meals to those in need around the country, there’s a new need that CEO Joe Gitler and his team are working to achieve – hanging on to Israel’s farms.

This story was initially supposed to be a three-minute sponsored feature at the end of Thursday’s news podcast, but the discussion was so interesting, so newsworthy and so full of facts and figures that we wanted to present the entire interview. Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
