DescFARM TO SCHOOL: Sierra Harvest's Farm to School Program is currently in 33 Nevada County schools & reaches over 7,100 students (97% of Western Nevada County's K-8 students). It connects students to fresh, local food through hands-on activities in their school gardens, on farms, & in their cafeterias. Farm partners host farm field trips, provide 8 weeks of produce gobbled up by students on their school produce stand, & come to the classroom to share farming stories & activities with the kids. Sierra Harvest also delivers monthly "Harvest of the Month" tastings of local, seasonal fruits & vegetables to classrooms along with educator curriculum & a family newsletter. "Tasting Days" bring guest chefs into the classroom to cook simple, seasonal meals with over 2,500 students. Foothills Fresh, scratch cooked meals for all, is changing the way students eat at school. Moving from frozen, processed foods heated & wrapped in plastic to fresh foods cooked from scratch featuring salad bars is transforming nutritional opportunities for thousands of students. Sierra Harvest has successfully engaged school districts, donors & community partners to invest financially in 13 school gardens to ensure sustainability while creating an outdoor learning lab for teachers. Survey data indicate that participating students try new fruits & veggies for the first time through Harvest of the Month, eat more of a fruit or veggie after trying it at school, & report that they shop directly from farmers more often.Desc

DescFARM INSTITUTE: The Farm Institute works alongside farmers and ranchers to increase sustainable food production. Farm Institute programs build the prosperity of ecologically sustainable producers, increase the land in organic production, and train more beginning farmers as the older generation retires. Agricultural Skills classes train beginning farmers in regenerative agriculture production. The six-week skill-building business course, Farm Biz, leaves participants with a concrete business plan and financial knowledge that is critical to running a viable farm business. The Land Match program connects sustainable farmers and ranchers with local agricultural land. To date, Sierra Harvest has trained 136 farmers, helped 9 farms certify organic, matched 24 farmers to low cost farm land, and provided 3,706 hours of education. Sierra Harvest hosts farm tours for the public and specifically invites institutional buyers to increase market opportunities for these farmers. Sierra Harvest's Sustainable Food and Farm conference is an annual regional conference designed to educate and connect the local and regional sustainable farming community. The conference returned to in-person format, offering hands-on skill-building education directly on local farms. Participants engaged in workshops from internationally recognized speakers, with breakout sessions to ask questions and get advice. 90% of participating farmers/ranchers learned information that will contribute to the financial viability of their current or future farm business.Desc

The farm hosts experiential field trips, a summer camp, service projects, U-pick/Farm stand, and community volunteer days. The Food Love Farm provided 2,520 hours of hands-on farm education through summer camp to hundreds of children.

$84,654$0$32,104COMMUNITY FOOD ACCESS: For nine years, community and foundation support of the Sierra Gardens Program has put homegrown fruits and vegetables on hundreds of dining tables and provided beautiful and productive gardens for families. We celebrate this beloved program while bringing it to a close with our final project at Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital. This pause allows us to consider new ways to increase equitable food access and meet the needs of Nevada County residents. The Sierra Harvest Gold County Gleaning program harvests local organic produce that would otherwise be unharvested, thrown out or composted. This produce is donated to Interfaith Food Ministry who distributes it to 11,000 individuals with minimal access to fresh, organic food. This year, Sierra Harvest organized a team of volunteers to harvest 17,903 lbs of produce from 25 local farms, farmers' markets and backyard orchards. Over 94,467 pounds of local food has been rescued and given to those in need since August 2018.
$24,890$0$395PROCUREMENT: Sierra Harvest partners with farmers and food buyers to incorporate more locally and regionally grown fresh foods into institutional meal programs in our local correctional facility, senior homes, homeless shelters and schools. Sierra Harvest does this through a workshop series called Putting Local on the Menu. This series is designed to connect producers with buyers and to increase the amount of local food consumed at restaurants and institutions. Our procurement services include producer/buyer mixers, access to producer availability lists, tours of local farms and ranches, identifying seasonal, cost effective recipes, and assistance with educating customers about local sources of food and why it is important to support our local farming community. There are 32 farm businesses that have received direct support in connecting to new buyers to sell their agricultural products.
$5,016$0$0FOOD POLICY: Sierra Harvest engages in local, regional, and national policies that support just, sustainable food systems. The Nevada County Food Policy Council (NCFPC) was formed in March 2015 to foster collaboration among local food and farming individuals, businesses and organizations, set common goals and work together to maximize positive impacts on the food environment, human health, and livelihoods in the community. The NCFPC is a member of the California Food and Farming Network which allows them to weigh in on statewide food and farming policies that impact Nevada County. The NCFPC, which has had over 80 local food and farming organizations attend, completed a food system assessment in 2021 to study the impacts of the current industrialized food system present in the county and to invest in a more vibrant local food system built on a strong sense of community.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Form 990, Part I, Line 6SIERRA HARVEST VOLUNTEERS: This year 122 generous volunteers worked over 2,250 hours to help Sierra Harvest make progress towards their mission and vision. These volunteers built backyard gardens for families, donated their time to help harvest fruits and vegetables that would otherwise go to waste from farms and home orchards and distributed them to a local food pantry. They turned beds, planted starts, harvested, and weeded at our Food Love Educational Farm. They helped our staff adapt to a new online communication model via Zoom that allowed our community to deeply engage in supporting the local food movement.
Form 990, Part III, Line 3Sierra Harvest resumed most of our programing that had been limited in previous years due to pandemic restrictions, including reintroduction of guest chefs in the schools, some farm potlucks, and an in-person Food & Farm conference. Sierra Harvest provided support to eight school districts and the Nevada County Superintendent of Schools to create a joint powers of authority, the Nevada County School Food Services Agency, to collaborate on the development of Foothills Fresh, a pre-K - 12 scratch cooked school meal program for Western Nevada County schools that features fresh food from California producers.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11bFORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS: The 990 is reviewed by the Board of Directors prior to submission. The 990 is first submitted to the Finance Committee. The Finance Committee reviews the 990, suggests corrections, and then presents the amended document to the full board. The board then reviews the 990 prior to submission.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cEXPLANATION OF MONITORING AND ENFORCEMENT OF CONFLICTS: Board members sign our conflict of interest policy when they join the board and it is reviewed by the Executive Director and then filed. Each year, board members are asked to fill out a conflict of interest disclosure statement. Any items of interest are reviewed by the Executive Director.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15COMPENSATION REVIEW AND APPROVAL PROCESS (CEO & TOP MANAGEMENT AND OFFICERS & EMPLOYEES): The Executive Director prepares a budget for compensation using the Non Profit Resource Center's Compensation Guide for Northern CA and regional job postings as a guide. Compensation also takes into account each employee's performance, their time in the position, their level of budgetary responsibility and their number of direct reports. The Board then approves this budget. The Board follows a similar process to set the salary of the Executive Director.
