Community Group Today

Cathy Snyder, Founder and Executive Director, Rolling Harvest Food Rescue

Rolling Harvest Food Rescue collects donated produce from local farms and markets, and distributes immediately to the non-profit hunger-relief agencies helping the most needy families in the community.

Cathy was a native Philadelphian working in broadcast sales when she left to live overseas with her family, first in Tokyo, then on to Amsterdam, Taipei, Kuala Lumpur and Louisville until finally coming back home and settling a few years ago in the New Hope, PA area. While always active in local community service wherever she lived, Cathy found herself volunteering at a food pantry in Lambertville, NJ, helping out with the day-to-day operations and interacting with the local, food-insecure and needy population of this otherwise affluent and prosperous tourist area.

This began a personal mission to provide a more balanced, more nutritious choice of foods being distributed to the pantry visitors. Cathy had won a huge, red Ford Excursion SUV at Churchill Downs Racetrack in Kentucky, and started using that truck to go to farm markets and grocers, asking for donations of fresh produce, a commodity in short supply at the food pantry. Years later, she has now branched out to full-time procurement of the freshest, healthiest, locally-grown food. The red Ford has been replaced by two beautiful donatedRolling Harvest Food Rescue delivery vehicles and is just part of the tremendous generosity and support of our local communities!

Come meet Cathy today and learn more about this extraordinary local nonprofit organization.

See you at the Market!
