Harvest The Valley, Harvest The River
For the second year in a row, Comox Valley and Campbell River residents will have the opportunity to lend a helping hand to their local food bank in a simple way that gets everyone involved. Sponsored by the Investors Group, the mayors of both communities have challenged residents to some “friendly rivalry”.

On Friday, September 24th, Comox Valley residents should check their copy of the Comox Valley Record for a paper bag that can be filled with non-perishable items. Similarly, the Campbell River Mirror will be distributing these paper bags. Once you’ve stuffed the bag full, leave it on your street curb on your regular recycling pick-up day – volunteers will be out to collect the bags.
Check Facebook for more information on Harvest the Valley or Harvest the River and how you can help your local food bank.
People wouldn’t believe how much local food banks are hurting! Great post to bring attention to this Keira.
