Harvesters - The Community Food Network Reviews

There pretty fast unloading but no over night parking I asked

Work up a sweat and feel good about helping others. Always an enjoyable experience.

My apartment complex is one of the mobile pantrys and we bearly get anything, lucky if we get eggs with our 5 potato and monthly left overs

It is great the way people come together to help. I love helping here. They help feed a lot of people.

Work for two hours at sorting tasks. Nothing to hard. Fun with friends.

Not too happy the last two trips or three trips down I haven't got all of my order and nobody seems to know why and I haven't got a good explanation but I'm not getting my frozen food that I've bordered.

Never again will I eat carrots but I love helping people out

I went there with a volunteer work group and we packed food for children. It was a good experience and makes you see that your own problems are not as bad as you think.

Friendly staff, really good opportunity for students to experience giving back!

I go to help out with food, to give to people in need,,,

Assists the less fortunate in the community by providing them with food and other household goods.

This warehouse food bank has such a positive impact on so many communities! If you have 2 hours to spare, volunteer here. You will help make a difference and will be amazed with this facility!

I have served at Harvesters multiple times but not nearly enough! We are called to serve one another, to help our fellow brethren! Much thanks to Harvesters for remaining steadfast in the works of the Lord & placing others before themselves! I will be down soon to lend a hand!

Great non-profit organization that goes towards a great cause.

I got to play with onions for a good two hours! Best time of my life and can't wait to go back.

Nice staff
Fast unloading

Excellent place to volunteer. They're organized and friendly and they help so many people in over 20 different counties.

Friendly Receiver The lady at receiving actually greeted me with a smile..as u know that's REAR in my business.

Such a kind organization. Volunteering here is always a great time.

Where would the city be without Harvesters there is such a giving organization I love going there I feel like a kid in a candy store sometimes because they have such wonderful things and the staff is very friendly will is the best

Great facilities, great mission, great volunteer opportunities

people from my office volunteered there one afternoon this week. A great team-building experience, and helpful to the organization, too.

Volunteer for a great cause. They will take every person that is willing to help.

I was at a Food Pantry that was involved with Harvesters. I cannot Express how grateful that I am for their employees and volunteers. God bless them.

Harvesters provides a great service to our community! The staff often seems overwhelmed, but they have an extremely large area of clients they provide to, and even if it takes a few extra minutes they always get you and your organization taken care of. It may just take a few phone calls and/or emails to get them on the same page as you. Regardless, their helping hand is extremely generous and the service they provide to the community does not go unnoticed.

I enjoy my monthly service at Harvesters. Its a very large operation but the service tasks are focused and rewarding.

This is a great place to volunteer. Harvesters does so much for our community!

What a job they do ; helping the community with food for the needy.

First time for being at this place a big guy with a tattoo on his foot in the receiving area was in a bad mood maybe his parents didn t tech him good manners people like that make the company look bad

Harvesters fills a much needed service in the community. Thank you.

If your doing a delivery with a highway truck no parking. enough for 3 trucks on the road small road . No overnight parking.

I'm posting as a volunteer - Harvesters does a great job organizing volunteers and instructing them on the work they'll be doing. I've volunteered here a couple times with groups from work and school and each experience has been pleasant (it's still work, but at least you're working with people you know!).

Harvesters is impressively large. I would have never expected that they operate on the scale that they do or that they could utilize so much warehouse space. They do a lot of good and they can always use a hand!

I enjoyed this place very much. It s very clean and they pay attention to every detail. Plus you are doing a kind work. Great place for families or friends to do kind work together

Volunteering here feels as rewarding as cooking 10 meals for somebody.

Some of the nicest, most helpful people work here. My church has been coming here for years

Great place to volunteer. The staff is organized, helpful, will get you setup quickly AND you get to layout your own schedule. There are a number of different jobs to choose from all in one location. Volunteer to help your community at your liesure, it's a fun time.

This is an amazingly great place. NEVER MISS OPPORTUNITY to be involved

Really enjoyed myself. Met some college students. Job related volunteer opportunity, glad I was able to take part. Will definitely volunteer again.

One of the best places to volunteer in KC. Very well run and does a lot of great work in the community.

Lovely people that support the mission. Never met one that was not polite and kind. Thank you to all the volunteers. Good place to humble your spoiled kids, like my 5 year old grandson when he gets a bit older. This also allows you to give back to the community or just get out of the house if you are retired. Did you know they are FDA approved to process a cow...if they needed to! They also ship out fast response teams for national emergencies, like a flood. They do more then feed the homeless. They help humanity overcome disasters. Good Humans.

I have been to the one in Blue Springs and Independence. The people assisting others are kind and compassionate about helping others. Not only do they pass out food but, take the time to make someone feel special and not just a number on a sticker. I received so much food for just one person, that I came home and divided it up among my aging neighbors, who no longer get out. They were thrilled and very thankful! I have never received any spoiled food or milk. Most dates on packaged food expired within 1-2 months. How awesome is that? I have been to food pantries where people were given dented canned food that was expired and a health hazard. Just because a person is in "need" doesn't mean they deserve something less. Harvesters doesn't do this, thankfully! I have since moved home to Alabama and hope to introduce this way of "helping the community" to the governor of our state, in hopes to better assist the people of Alabama, who would otherwise, do without.

Volunteerism is a great thing. But my back hurts after bagging sweet potatoes for 3 hours.

Great people doing great things. I loved helping out

I appreciate all the work they do! I had a great experience sorting and packaging can goods!

Our church volunteers here periodically. We always have a great experience. Harvesters is never lacking for tasks to assign, and they are always super-organized and ready to handle groups of any size.

Very nice staff! Nice big building that was well organized especially given how unorganized it can come to them! Very glad was able to help out some!

There is a a need for help w some families that none of us can fill. We try but it has been hard. Harvesters helps those in need . They are amazing, good people. I have seen the good they do! God be Bless.

Harvesters Garden is an excellent place to volunteer!

Great place doing great things! Give your time, give your money, give food. Do what you can!

Great organization helping those in need here in the Kansas City area. Get your company, church, sports team, high school, etc. and call to come in and sort or package food items for distribution. It feels great to help all throughout the year.

Well-organized and they do so much for the community. I love that you can take a big group there to volunteer or you can just go on your own or just take your family. They do not turn volunteers away and there's always something to do. Be sure to wear closed-toed shoes and prepare to wash your hands a lot.

Always there to supply food for pantries to help feed those in need!

This is a unique experience visiting this place with a group of 25 amazing people from all over Africa. That made me feel complete as human and I remember thinking about this Martin Luther King Jr quote: Life most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for other? .... This network, this giant helps millions of people getting food. Thank you for your work.

Great place to volunteer. Easy to navigate website. Projects are clear and straight forward. Really good agency, glad to support this agency with my time.

Touching the lives of the food needy in 26 counties! And you can volunteer. Celebrate and help this incredible food bank

It's pretty amazing to be able to visit the facility and see the scale of the operation; the warehouse is huge!

Harvesters is a great resource for non-profit organizations.

Was excellent experience I advise everyone who can to volunteer time there

Always great to give back
What an awesome organization

This place is amazing, the people who worked their were friendly and helpful. My fellow volunteers were all excited to help and ready to work hard. I cannot wait for my daughter and I to get to do some more work with this amazing organization/ location. Just a heads up if you are looking to organize a group volunteer opportunity, plan well in advance. We have such an awesome community here in the KC area that spots fill quickly.

This place is amazing. I volunteered there for my service project but have gone there twice before with my school, it is the go to place for service work for my classmates. I even met a new person that was super cool me and him were working on sorting drinks together. Overall it was fun and at the same time got to help out the community. I give HARVESTERS 5 STARS.
