Engage your employees, get outdoors and support the Ottawa Food Bank. Adopt a crop today!
Did you know?
The Ottawa Food Bank grows fresh produce on an 8-acre farm (donated to us by Tom Black and his family of Black Family Farm) near Stittsville? This farm plays an important role in helping us deliver additional fresh produce to nearly 100 food programs. In 2024, we planted over 20 crops and harvested over 152,992 lbs of fresh food!
THANK YOU to all of our Adopt A Crop Ambassadors for helping us achieve these amazing targets!
Adopt a Crop invites local businesses to get involved with our community harvest. Each Adopt a Crop Ambassador will choose a crop and “champion” it over the course of the 2025 growing season. Our Ambassadors will also have access to a full season of exciting programming, including onsite community harvest volunteer shifts AND updates straight from the farm!
NEW this year! Introducing Raise a Row – an alternative option to support our Community Harvest for smaller budgets. By participating in this alternate opportunity, you can access engaging opportunities like volunteering on the farm and recognition as a Raise a Row Ambassador. Choose a row, and help it grow!
