Monash Community Harvest (MCH) is a community-led initiative to find residents within the Monash area who have fruit trees and vegetable gardens that are growing an abundance of produce, of which a high percentage goes to waste. Residents register to have produce harvested and picked up from their residence by a volunteer of MCH with the harvest then delivered to MCH HQ in Oakleigh. A portion of the produce will be preserved at community preserving days/workshops before a fortnightly market harvest/shop day, where registered residents can attend & take home a mix of fresh produce as well as various preserves.
Monash Community Harvest (MCH) is about building and strengthening the Monash community and engaging residents of all ages and backgrounds to come together to share produce, share resources and share stories whilst actively reducing food waste.
As it aims to reduce food waste and provide nutritious local food to the community, MCH will assist in food relief for those most vulnerable within our community by giving access to high quality, nutritious produce.
Through community preserving days/workshops, residents will be able to attend, learn new skills and meet people within the community over locally harvested food.
Simple actions for big impacts.
