About Summer on the Farm at Community Harvest Project in North Grafton, MA

Every year, we donate over 500,000 pounds of fresh produce to hunger relief organizations across the state. We know that members of our community who suffer from food insecurity are also more likely to have limited access to healthy foods. This can lead to poor health effects such as unhealthy diet, higher levels of obesity, and higher instances of diet-related diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. In an effort to combat this, Community Harvest Project works to ensure that everyone in our community has access to healthy food options. We farm and donate fruits and vegetables to local hunger relief organizations so everyone can make nutritious choices. Last year, our volunteers donated over 500,000 pounds of fresh produce to local hunger relief organizations across the state.

We work hard to make sure that members of our community who experience hunger have the opportunity to make nutritious choices. By farming and donating fruits and vegetables, we are able to provide access to healthy options for all.
