Coastal Harvest

Coastal Harvest is a non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov since April 18, 2011, located in Hoquiam, Washington. As a tax-exempt corporate entity, the organization focuses on supporting local food systems and hunger relief efforts in Washington state. While specific details about its broader organizational mission are not provided in the available data, the federal grant awards suggest Coastal Harvest plays a critical role in addressing food insecurity and supporting agricultural economic opportunities for socially disadvantaged producers.

Through federal grant sub-awards from the State of Washington Department of Agriculture, Coastal Harvest has consistently received funding to support local emergency food providers and strengthen regional food systems. The organization's grant awards, dated January 11, April 8, and May 7 of 2024, specifically target the procurement of local foods for distribution to hunger relief organizations and underserved communities. These grants align with the Temporary Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), which aims to provide food and funding to local emergency food providers supporting low-income individuals. By serving as a sub-grantee, Coastal Harvest helps bridge government resources with local food distribution networks, ultimately supporting food security initiatives and economic opportunities for disadvantaged agricultural producers in Washington state.
