TC Harvest

                                                                               We reap what you grow!

In the US, it is estimated that as much as 30% of food gets wasted. That’s about $48.2 billion of food. On our more local level, perhaps you've  walked around the city and noticed unharvested fruit. Here's a chance to do something about it here at home.

Listen to us on Valley Public Radio

We've created a local compassion-in-action service project that
  • Feeds the hungry  (In Tulare County alone, 43.8% of adults live in food insecure households!)
  • Builds community (bringing people together to solve local challenges)
  • Promotes sustainable hyper-local foods (using good local food that would otherwise go to waste)
  • Promotes health (through physical activity as we harvest, sharing nutritious food, and building social/community connections)

TC Harvest, is a local grass-roots effort dedicated to raise awareness on food waste and food insecurity. We're a group of friends who harvest fruit & nuts from neighbors’ backyards to donate to local charities who feed the hungry

Homeowners:  If you have a larger amount of fruit, or are physically unable to harvest the fruit on your tree, and you live in Visalia, Tulare, Lindsay or Exeter, our team of TC Harvest volunteers will visit your home on a weekend and carefully harvest the fruit on your trees. Learn more and donate!

Harvest Volunteers: Are you free for a few hours on the weekends?  Are you interested in being involved in our project?  We always need new volunteers. Learn more about us and join us!
