SERVING SALT SPRING ISLAND

A Non-Profit Network 

of Food Programs

Harvest is an interconnected network of food security programs operating within Salt Spring Island Community Services. We grow, cook, preserve, distribute and recover food for our community. By managing multiple food security programs within one organization we can more efficiently ensure that healthy food goes where it’s needed most.
