Hands in the Weeds: Feeding Local Families in Need

Central One Community Harvest

In March 2025, the U.S. Department of Agriculture cut nearly $1 billion in federal funding for crucial food assistance programs. At a time when food insecurity has risen from roughly 67,000 people in 2019 to 97,000 people in Worcester County today, cuts like these are forcing families to make difficult decisions.  

Disparities like this are what drive the mission of Community Harvest Project, a nonprofit working farm dedicated to addressing food insecurity through sustainable farming practices. They rely on volunteers to help tend their crops while providing hands-on farming experience. Most of the fresh produce they grow is donated to the Worcester County Food Bank, which distributes it throughout its hunger relief network.  

Community Harvest Project believes in the power of community collaboration to create positive social change. And we couldn’t agree more! 

Throughout the year, we send teams of employees to volunteer at the Community Harvest Project’s farm in North Grafton and Harvard. It’s an opportunity to literally get our hands dirty while making a lasting impact. 

This past week was no different. The day after a rainstorm, our team headed into the fields to remove weeds from a large field of onions and scallions. It was muddy work, but well worth it knowing we were helping support the process of providing healthy, fresh food to local families. 

We’re proud to support Community Harvest Project, and we look forward to continuing to serve alongside them because together, small acts really do make a big impact.
