Golden Harvesters

For 25 years Golden Harvesters has been providing food to low-income residents of Portland, OR, and the surrounding area. Members pay $30 a month and volunteer for at least 2 hours.  In return, members visit twice a week to select food.

The food selection varies widely depending on the season and  donation availability. However, it consists largely of vegetables, fruit, bread, dairy, sweets, and a weekly “protein option” such as almond butter, meat or eggs. Other items that frequent the co-op shelves include juice, chips/crackers, some canned goods, tempeh, tofu, beans, rice, flours, pasta, sauces/condiments, and grab-and-go meals. There is a small gluten-free section and some items are organic.  For thirty dollars a month, you get a lot of food!

Anyone in need can join. Income verification is not required.

Golden Harvesters is located at 8100 N Lombard St, Portland, OR
