**NOTE: THIS PROGRAM IS CURRENTLY INACTIVE***
LCF Community Harvest is community-wide, year-round program that connects local volunteers with fruit tree owners to redirect our community's home grown produce to nearby families in need of assistance. The volunteers harvest the fruit (often hundereds of pounds in an afternoon) and deliver it to the Foothill Unity Center in Pasadena. Then, the Foothi
ll Unity Center incorporates the fresh produce into its weekly food distribution program. So, within days of harvest from our community, the fruit is being enjoyed by families who may otherwise go without. It is a wonderful service project for school or scout groups (age 11+) or for families or adult groups looking for a fun, outdoor community activity that can really made a difference. Homeowners with fruit trees really don't have to do anything but sign up and let us know which trees we can harvest! Our volunteers always have an adult supervisor, and come with all the supplies they need. The Community Center can provide a receipt for your donations, which may be tax deductible. For more information about volunteering or if you have a fruit tree to include in our program, please email us at [email protected] or call Monica @ 818-489-4907.
