Due to recent COVID19 response, the majority of our Village Harvest team has been relocated to Hawaii Food Bank to work on the Kupuna CSA Box program.
Extra produce is needed to keep our food banks and pantries full. Produce deliveries can be dropped off at the Hawaii Food Bank Kauai Branch in their Puhi warehouse Monday through Friday. Pickups are limited to large quantities at this time.
For more info Contact Jennifer Sapp at (808) 828-0685 x11 or villageharvest@malamakauai.org.
JOIN VILLAGE HARVEST
Village Harvest is a volunteer-based gleaning program that harvests and donates produce to those in need. We strive to bridge the gap between food waste and food insecurity by utilizing food left over from harvests on personal properties and small farms. The produce gleaned is donated to food pantries and youth programs. We also install food trees throughout the community to increase direct access to produce into the future.
