National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, better places to live.
This year, we partnered with the Northlake Police Department to promote National Night Out. As we continue to grow, we will look to host our own National Night Out event. Harvest residents are already mobilized and have formed a Neighborhood Watch Group in coordination with the Northlake Police. Together we are working to keep Harvest a safe community.
Check out pictures from this year's National Night Out where several Harvest families attended!

Why Donate Produce to the North Texas Food Bank?
By Whitney Strauss, Sr. Manager of Corporate Engagement, North Texas Food Bank
Fruits and vegetables are often the most neglected foods in the general public's diet. They are especially important for those that are food insecure and do not have access to fresh produce. Providing fresh produce shows that one cares about the health of those receiving food. All quality produce is welcome! Great produce to donate are the same types of produce with a decent shelf life (root vegetables, citrus and melons). Additional variety (berries, etc.) are also needed and bring needed nutritional value.

Hello from Jackson Hole, Wyoming!
What I miss most about Harvest are the kids. They would always come to the Farmhouse and ask if I could come out and play. I also LOVED when the Watson’s or Kleehammer’s would stop by and take me out for a walk!
