About Us
We are a group of people who live and/or work in Renton. We care greatly about building a sustainable community — one that fosters connections between people, protects natural resources, and treads as lightly as possible on the Earth. Our mission is to foster a healthier community and planet.
We support sustainability, human rights, and food equity through a number of projects. These include our Community Farm, Sustainability Education Classes, Food Waste Rescue, our Free Grocery Store, and our emerging Fruit Forest! We are a secular and low-barrier organization.
Thank you to the many, many community members who have helped our organization throughout the years. We would not be making the kind of impact we are without all of our volunteers and committed participants in our programs. Together, we can continue to create a more sustainable and just community for all of us.

The Legacy of the Free Grocery Store
As we bid a bittersweet farewell to our Free Grocery Store COVID relief initiative after three incredible years of service, we're reflecting on the extraordinary impact we've made together.
Since 2020, Sustainable Renton has rescued over 2.5 million pounds of food from Washington landfills and ensured that it went straight to our community members - no questions asked. Over 3 years, we have welcomed nearly 83,000 customer visits to date – these are not just numbers; they're testaments to the incredible community we've built.
Before we close our doors on December 18th, we want to leave our community with as much support as possible! The winter holidays are upon us, and we're on a mission to bring warmth and joy to our community.
We're launching a special fundraiser to purchase holiday food necessities for our customers, ensuring they can experience the magic of the multiple holidays and cultural celebrations during this season.
Why Give?
Your support has fueled Sustainable Renton's Free Grocery Store for 3 years, and now, we invite you to be a part of its final chapter. Every dollar you contribute will directly fund the purchase of holiday essentials, making a tangible impact on the lives of those families and individuals in our community who may be experiencing the pressures of this season.
How You Can Help:
Join us in this season of giving to promote equity and justice in Renton.
Together, we can make this season a little brighter for those who need it most.
