Harvesting Parties
We bring neighbors together to pick fruit that
would otherwise go to waste, and make it available to people in need.
Half of the fruit goes to a local food bank, and the rest goes home with volunteers.
Harvesting Parties are open to anyone, and filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
We hold Harvesting Parties every week, August through October.
We also coordinate special harvesting events for organizations serving low-income clients.
