Welcome to the Spring 2025 edition of Harvester. This season, we highlight stories about community connections and healthy food.

First, you’ll meet Bob, a retired postal worker whose dedication to service has taken a new route. Bob’s journey from mail routes to meal routes highlights his continued commitment to service — delivering not just food, but also connection to seniors who are homebound and adults with disabilities.

Next, explore the growth and achievements of our Farm Share Rx program through Valerie’s experience. Having participated for more than three years, she’s seen significant improvements in her health and lifestyle, thanks to a steady supply of fresh produce from our Youth Farm.

Lastly, we highlight the strong relationships formed at one of our partner food pantries. There, volunteers and community members like Mary Ann have built a supportive network that extends well beyond the distribution of food to enrich lives through friendships and care.

Thank you for everything you do. Your generosity doesn’t just fill plates — it fosters hope and independence, and it strengthens our collective spirit.

Let’s continue to work together to ensure that no one in our community has to face hunger alone.
