MAY'S BAG DONATIONS SUPPORT: SHARE THE HARVEST

Share the Harvest started on a half acre in 2010, and now farms six acres at EECO Farm in East Hampton. We were founded on the belief that everyone should have access to fresh, nutritious food. To that end, we grow and donate thousands of pounds of fresh, highly nutritious vegetables and herbs to local organizations feeding hundreds of children, seniors, and families in our community.

Their mission is to grow highly nutritious and organic produce for donation to local food pantries and other charitable organizations, to increase food access for all in need and to raise awareness about food insecurity on the East End.

Organizations we serve include:

• South Fork food pantries

• Affordable housing complexes

• The Retreat women's shelter

• East Hampton Town Senior Citizens Nutrition Center

• Heart of the Hamptons

• Children's Museum of the East End (CMEE)

They employ organic methods to encourage a diverse and thriving soil ecosystem that provides a healthy environment for our crops. We focus on nutrient-rich vegetables and cold-tolerant staple crops that provide much-needed produce in early spring and late fall, when many families in our community are struggling to make ends meet. Past generous donations allowed us to build greenhouses that extend our growing season, allowing us to continue delivering produce year-round.
