In Harmony has collected food for Northwest Harvest from our generous clients every fall for the past 15 years.
When we started In Harmony 25 years ago, one of our main goals was to help reconnect human beings to the planet. We wanted to move beyond “better living through chemicals.”
Part of our work has been helping people understand how important Mother Nature’s wellbeing is and how her health is directly connected to our own wellbeing. That includes good, healthy food.
With this in mind, we started a food drive for Northwest Harvest in 2004. We wanted to help an organization that provides nutritious food to hungry people and fights to end hunger.
Each autumn for the past 15 years we have picked up food from our great clients and delivered it to Northwest Harvest. Over that time we have collected more than 20 tons of food!
If you are a service client, you will receive a call this fall to remind you to leave out non-perishable food for Northwest Harvest. Our technicians will pick it up on a service visit, and we will deliver everything to the organization. We hope you will join us in supporting this important cause.
