About Us

Welcome to Harvest Yards, a grassroots initiative founded by two sisters, Sophie and Anfissa, students driven by a vision to combat food insecurity and promote environmental sustainability.

Our journey began with a simple observation: the abundance of unharvested fruits and vegetables in our neighborhoods. This realization sparked Harvest Food, an endeavor aimed at transforming forgotten produce into nourishing meals for those in need. Through volunteer-driven harvests and innovative technology, we’re bridging the gap between excess and access, ensuring fresh produce reaches the tables of individuals and families across our community.

Our Mission

Empower Communities to ensure, "Food for All."

At Harvest Yards, our mission is twofold: to reduce food waste and to alleviate hunger. We believe that by harvesting the surplus from our own and those of our neighbors, we can make a significant impact on the food security of our communities and on our environment. Our efforts extend beyond just collecting and distributing food; we’re committed to creating a sustainable ecosystem of giving, learning, and sharing. 

Together, we can end food Insecurity
