Our Mission: North Hastings Community Trust (NHCT) works together with our community
to provide emergency and sustainable solutions to poverty in North Hastings.
The Trust is made up of people from the North Hastings community who are passionate about everybody being warm, having food and homes, feeling connected and having a sense of purpose. We strive to be all about learning, creativity, inclusion, and building strong community connections and supports for each other.
Connected to the Scarecrow Challenge celebrating food independence, we operate a food share program and Harvest the North creates and supports community gardens in the growing season.
