Community Donations

Our Philosophy

At Open Harvest Co-op we strive to promote the health and sustainability of our community with small donations throughout the year.

Community Donation Guidelines

We offer $10 to $50 gift certificates for use at silent auctions, fundraisers, or other one-time events.

Our donation preferences are given to local non-profits, sustainable agriculture and environmental programs. Our donation program does not support partisan or religious organizations. Recipient organizations are eligible a maximum of twice per year.

SEED Program

The SEED program is a simple yet powerful community giving opportunity that allows customers to “round-up” their grocery bill for recipient organizations that share our commitment to a healthy community. Click here to learn more.

Cooperative Community Fund

In 2007, our co-op started the Open Harvest Cooperative Community Fund (OHCCF) to aid in developing new co-ops throughout the nation and to further give back to local nonprofits. The endowment is funded through contributions from Open Harvest, matches by other co-ops, and donations from shippers through our SEED program. Click here to learn more
