Cascade Harvest Coalition`s mission:
Building healthy food and farm systems by cultivating common ground among farming and non-farming communities
About the Cascade Harvest Coalition:
Members and friends of the Cascade Harvest Coalition represent the diverse range of interests for healthy food and farm systems in Western Washington. From farm gate to dinner plate, food and farm issues affect our economy, our health and our landscape. To sustain the region, we must sustain the region’s food and farm system. Toward this goal, the Cascade Harvest Coalition provides a forum for the diversity of individuals and organizations to work together in a coordinated effort.
Key goals of the Coalition:
- Increase public awareness, appreciation and support for the economic, environmental, and cultural benefits of agriculture in the region.
- Promote preservation and protection of agricultural lands and resources.
- Enhance community food security and health by improving access to and consumption of locally-produced food.
- Promote coordinated action and dialogue among the broad diversity of agricultural interests on issues affecting the region’s farmers, agricultural resources and quality of life.
Washington FarmLink:
Washington FarmLink, a program of the Cascade Harvest Coalition, is the state's leading program to link aspiring farmers and landowners and helps build sustainable farming operations. FarmLink addresses barriers taht farmers face in keeping their land in farming and answers the call for more technical assistance and education. FarmLink helps ensure that working farms remain in agricultural production and helps facilitate the transition of farms to the next generation by connecting people with the resources and technical expertise necessary to achieve these goals through: (1) a farmer-landowner matching service; (2) educational workshops; (3) a comprehensive one-stop resource center; and (4) one-on-one assistance.
