About US
The mission of the Abundant Harvest is
to feed the body, nourish the soul, and transform the community.
In 2017 we began with a food truck, feeding refugees and rebuilding homes after Hurricane Harvey. In 2020 as COVID shut-down our community, we opened The Abundant Harvest Kitchen, responding to meet immediate physical needs, providing more than one million pounds of food and ten thousand meals to local families. We're currently feeding more than 1,200 families each month through our food pantry.
Our café is now open! Please come visit us at 24803 Oakhurst Drive. Join us for lunch Tuesday-Friday at Noon, volunteer at our food pantry every Tuesday and Thursday, and enjoy our coffee shop with free Wi-Fi, when you buy one of our Meals to Go, we feed a meal to a local family in need. Every meal you buy feeds another local family. To support us with a charitable contribution, please visit our Ways to Give page.
