Harvest for the Hungry is a partnership with community supported agriculture (CSA) farms to provide fresh, locally-grown produce to Minnesota households facing hunger. We are asking donors and CSA members to help us purchase produce from Minnesota and Western Wisconsin farmers for local hunger relief.
When contributing to Harvest for the Hungry, you support local growers and help us deliver fresh nutritious foods to the tables of hungry families who cannot often afford the luxury of fresh, locally-grown produce.
All produce collected through the Harvest for the Hungry program will be delivered to our network of foodshelves, on-site meal programs and hunger relief agencies for free.
In 2010 Harvest for the Hungry received over $48,000 in donations from more than 100 donors, including generous grant contributions from the Wedge and Cargill Company. These funds were used to purchase over 71,000 pounds of fresh, local produce to feed hungry families in the Twin Cities and with current support from CSA members and donors in the community, the Wedge, and Finnegans, we hope to distribute even more nutritious local produce in 2011.
Meet the farms.
