A Message from Our Board​

 

We’re thrilled to share an exciting milestone for our community! Sunshine Community Compost and Community Harvest SRQ have merged to form Sunshine Community Harvest—a unified nonprofit dedicated to cultivating and advancing a resilient, local food network that nourishes our community and planet.

For years, our two organizations have worked side by side, each advancing hands-on, community‑powered solutions to food waste, soil health, and fresh food access.

 

Together, we’ve:​

• Diverted hundreds of thousands of pounds of food and food scraps from local landfills

• Expanded access to fresh, local produce

• Educated residents, students, and businesses on sustainable food practices

• Built strong volunteer networks committed to environmental stewardship

 

This is a moment of intentional evolution. By joining forces, we are creating an organization capable of deeper impact, broader reach, and greater long‑term resilience. Thank you for believing in this work and for helping build a healthier, more connected, more resilient local food network.

​

With gratitude, 

The Sunshine Community Harvest Board of Directors
