Spotlight--Huskie Harvest

Join us for an inspiring STEAM Studio Spotlight episode as we chat with Dr. Nancy Prange, Maggie, and Hanna from Huskie Harvest—a groundbreaking program at NIU that recovers surplus campus food and transforms it into free meals for students in need. Discover how this initiative has already saved over 16,000 lbs of food, created 18,000+ meals, and fostered sustainability while fighting food insecurity. Hear about the challenges, triumphs, and future dreams of expanding this model beyond NIU. Plus, learn how you can get involved! Tune in for a heartwarming conversation about community, innovation, and turning surplus into support.
