Sharing the Harvest Community Farm

FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

The generosity of others is at the core of our existence. It is only through the support of our thousands of volunteers and public and private donors that we are able to give back to the communities we serve.

Sharing the Harvest is a community farm run by volunteers. It was established in 2006 as a grassroots effort to alleviate hunger on the south coast of Massachusetts.

As Sharing the Harvest approaches its sixth growing season, we are still battling hunger on the south coast. Both New Bedford and Fall River are listed among cities with the highest concentrations of hunger in Massachusetts. In these cities one child in three lives in a family unable to meet its basic food necessities.

Charged with the hunger relief mission, as well as community stewardship and agricultural education, Sharing the Harvest hosts thousands of volunteers each season working together to grow food for our neighbors.

Thank you for helping make 2011 our best season yet.  Please join us in 2012 as we help our neighbors and reach for growth of more then 45,000 pounds!
