Coastal Harvest provides a number of critical services that simply are not attainable by small, local food pantries and feeding programs alone. These include purchasing power, transportation, food storage and collaboration with government, business, private and nonprofit entities. We increase the ability of these food pantries and feeding programs to serve their communities by efficiently managing the flow of food from suppliers to the consumer. A vital link in the assault on hunger, Coastal Harvest is a major component in the food distribution network in Grays Harbor, Pacific, Lewis, Thurston, Mason, Jefferson and Wahkiakum counties in Washington State. It is a leader in promoting cooperation and collaboration in service to its clients and community.
