DNO Lends Helping Hands at Mid-Ohio Food Collective

Recently Alex DiNovo, President of DNO Produce, celebrated the Mid-Ohio Food Collective Board's Volunteer Day by helping to pack boxes for families in need across Central Ohio, but our collaboration didn't end there! This summer, FRESHEALTH continued the tradition of paying our production floor employees to volunteer their days at MOFC during slower summer months. For the summer of 2025, our team volunteered 2,349.53 hours and invested $81,740.15 back into our community!

DNO is proud to play a small part in the work Mid-Ohio Food Collective does every day to put healthy, nourishing food on families’ tables.
