Harvest Algoma

Who We Are

We are more than a food bank; we’re the heart of our community’s fight against hunger. Our mission is to confront food insecurity head-on. We empower individuals and nurture skills in agriculture and food production.

About Harvest Algoma

Since our journey began in 2018, we’ve been more than just a helping hand. Through our staff and volunteers, Harvest Algoma gathers and distributes nutritious food to over 70 agencies across Algoma.

Our ambition transcends just filling plates – it’s about enriching lives. Our efforts go beyond meeting short-term needs; we open doors for people to learn and grow through developing vital food skills.

Our Approach to Community Food Security

Making a Difference from Seed to Table

Source Food

With local grocers, community donations, and our own greenhouses, we gather wholesome food otherwise lost to the landfill.

Prepare Meals

Our chefs and volunteers transform these ingredients into nutritious meals. Anything we don’t use is shared with local farmers for animal feed or is composted.

Distribute to Those
in Need

We store and then distribute these meals and food items across a network of regional food banks, shelters, and community programs.

Empowering Agencies

Local food bank employees and case workers collect and distribute this food, directly impacting clients in need.

Testimonial

The Front Lines of Food Insecurity

“We are SOYA, which is a non profit corporation, and have been partners with Harvest Algoma for 3 years. Without the assistance of Harvest SOYA would not be able to assist the over 500 people a week that rely on SOYA. The staff at Harvest are amazing and some of the most compassionate people you can ever meet. SOYA looks forward to many more years of partnership with them.”

Connie Raynor Elliot

Founder of SOYA (Save Our Young Adults)
