If you are not near one of the two you should seek out a large law firm to see if they would be willing to help you pro bono. Paying for a lawyer to help you start a non-profit is usually unnecesary. Once you start, you should think about putting a couple lawyers on your board to help you with more advanced issues.

Maybe you could somehow expand your idea to automobile or energy TRIMming too to help the TRIMmed food get where it needs to go.
