Second Harvest seeks to meet the material and relational needs of its surrounding community by providing quality goods at affordable prices in a bright, modern, and welcoming space. We engage a diverse family of volunteers and employees to glean gently used clothing, housewares, and furniture, sell them affordably where they are needed most, and invest the proceeds into living wage jobs and ultimately grants to strengthen and accelerate neighborhood organizations and initiatives.
According to @pasolarcenter āPennsylvania is ranked 45th in the country in terms of energy production from wind, solar, and hydropower. Only 3% of total energy comes from those sources in the state.ā

Itās National Clean Energy Week, and weāre proud to be a part of the change to boost #cleanenergy and reduce carbon emissions. Second Harvestās newly-installed, 48 kilowatt rooftop solar power system will not only reduce our carbon footprint, but also put an estimated $5,500 back in our budget each year to create opportunity, increase food security, and build community right here in Sharpsburg. The future looks bright for solar energy, for Second Harvest, and for our Sharpsburg community! š”

Itās happening!ā”ļøEarlier this year, through the generosity of supporters like you, we exceeded our goal to raise $48,000 to grow Second Harvest`s rooftop solar array. This week, 80 new bifacial solar panels are being installed to complete our 48 kilowatt rooftop solar power system. This solar array will not only reduce our carbon footprint, but also put an estimated $5,500 back in our budget each year to create opportunity, increase food security, and build community right here in Sharpsburg. The future for Second Harvest and our Sharpsburg community is bright, because of supporters like you.š”
