Please Watch Where You Park:

Be a good neighbor and only park in designated car parking areas. Kitsap Community Resources has generously offered their parking lot after 4:30PM, and they're just a block away. There are only 4 designated parking spots in the boat trailer parking area. Those parked illegally will get a ticket. Thank you for your cooperation!


 




Kitsap Harvest Grow-A-Row

Kitsap Harvest gleans produce from around Kitsap County and distributes it directly to community members facing hunger and food insecurity with the help of its volunteers. They are combating hunger and food waste by picking fruit trees, collecting produce donations from home gardeners and community gardens and delivering the food directly to partnering organizations including senior centers, recovery centers and homeless youth and veteran services.


If you have produce you'd like to donate, there are donation stations at Bremerton Community Farmers Market, Port Orchard Farmers Market and Kitsap Community Food Co-op. Sign up for their newsletter and stay up to date on all things Kitsap Harvest! Email info@kitsapharvest.org for questions.
