We would have our own if my parents didn't have a huge one we help out at. My husband is the cook in our family. I'm fortunate. Well, he is as I don't cook too well LOL

My neighbors all have big gardens too and they've said that they've put stuff out by the street when they get too much, but I don't remember seeing anything before. I know I had to put out cucumbers one year because we had too many. I already made an agreement with my next door neighbor to exchange some of my zucchini for some of her produce if we find we both have too much. I can easily grow zucchini and she grows everything else.

My dad sells his produce for cheap. We sell some at our annual garage sales in the summer & we have repeat buyers. What you could do is put an Honor Box & have people pay what they can. My dad used to give it away for years but it seems people want to pay "something". Makes them feel good.
That's great you have an agreement with your neighbor like that! I think if all pitched in, you'd have an abundant surplus of veggies but not i.e. a million zucchinis lol

I might just sneak around the neighborhood and put some zucchinis on their porches LOL I know where all the cameras point to, so I can avoid them haha

That's funny lol
You know, another option people do is the Little Free Library. It started with just books, but some have expanded the ideas & put in food. Some renamed it the Little Free Pantry.
 
Hope everyone has an awesome Memorial Day!

You're not going to work are you? You deserve to have a day to relax and grill and maybe go to a parade or cemetery service.
