A Fresh Food Initiative
Welcome to Rotary Harvest where communities can "grow together".
Statement of Need
Rotary District 7010 broadly suffers from food Insecurity. Food insecure areas increase the burden on healthcare and social costs.
Food insecure areas are a result of a general lack of resources including financial, transportation and information. These areas are accelerating as a result of poverty, unemployment, and the cost of living.
Our District needs to come together club by club and create a District-wide Harvest Teams Network to help resolve food insecurity in our own communities.
The Rotary Impact Club of 7010 has developed a interactive app that connects fresh food producers and donors to harvesters and distributors. We have the means of getting the food, transporting the food and finally distributing it to those that need it most.
We are selling at cost seed packets to create awareness of this initiative. Scan the QR code and complete the landing page. Your Rotary Club can soon be on a journey of resolving food insecurity in your own community.
Let's get together and help ensure that everyone in our District receives nutritious accessible food year round.
Our Mission
Rotary Harvest is a pilot programme developed in order to combat food insecurity by harvesting and distributing local surplus crops to those in need, and to advocate for sustainable food systems and education.
Vision
Rotary Harvest will serve as an online portal to grow, donate, volunteer, harvest, track, and give nourishing produce to local food banks and communities.
