Backyard Harvest is a brand in Moscow, Idaho, with a purpose to gather the excess bounty of the region and distribute it to those in need. For over a decade, they have been working in partnership with the community to connect individuals with extra fresh produce to those who need it most. Their programs highlight the impact of small vegetable gardens, residential fruit trees, and urban chicken coops on the community's food system, providing tens of thousands of pounds of high-quality, fresh food for neighbors to share.

Backyard Harvest believes in the importance of self-reliance, as communities that can feed themselves eliminate transportation and packaging costs that rely on non-renewable resources. They also recognize that food grows communities and strengthens a sense of common purpose and fellowship. By gathering, gleaning, and growing, people of all backgrounds come together for a common cause.

Backyard Harvest aims to influence and shape local food systems across the country, and they invite you to join them in rediscovering the bounties in our backyards
