Volunteer-based farming for hunger relief.
Community Harvest Project (CHP) is a nonprofit, volunteer farming organization based in North Grafton, MA. CHP weaves together thousands of volunteers and donors into a community of resources to solve local hunger.
•Each year, thousands of individuals join together to grow tens of thousands of pounds of healthy, fresh, fruit and produce for donation to the local hunger relief effort.
•CHP farms serve as place-based learning environments for public awareness of hunger, farming, food-security, nutrition, natural resource conservation, land preservation, and the value of community service.
•CHP’s long term objective is to serve as a model that can be replicated in other communities.
