About PLANT A ROW FOR THE HUNGRY PORT WASHINGTON NEW YORK INC

Founded in 2010, Plant A Row for the Hungry (Port Washington) is a 501(c)(3) community nonprofit that organizes residents to grow and donate fresh fruits and vegetables to local food pantries and families in need. The organization runs multiple programs — Harvest At Home, Produce Delivery, Painted Planters, and Mini Farms — to collect, maintain, and distribute produce. Plant A Row reports having delivered more than 350,000 servings of fresh produce to area food pantries and operates an active volunteer program and network of community planters (50+ planters). In the last 2–3 years the organization has remained active in town events (library Earth Day outreach, HarborFest participation) and adapted local drop-off logistics (local hardware drop-off site) to improve produce collection and delivery. The group is locally focused and donor-facing with an active website, volunteer sign-ups, recurring community events, and visible sponsorships from local foundations and civic groups, indicating ongoing operations and public engagement.
