Meet the Team
The people behind Sharing the Harvest at Wiley Heights and partner churches.
Ann Snipes
Project Lead - 2012
Ann and her husband Dan lead the project from their apple orchard. STH "makes the world smaller and builds the faith of everyone involved."
Cara Elzie
Marketing Lead - 2012
Passionate about food justice, Cara brings fresh ideas to STH while pursuing a BA/MA in History with minors in Justice Studies and Sustainable Food Systems.
Becky Thomas
Committee Member - 2012
A founding team member, Becky loves how STH lets churches "work together for good." Off the farm, she makes and installs barn quilts.
Sherrin Melcher
Committee Member - 2012
A core committee member and Wiley Heights church chair, Sherrin sees STH as a grassroots movement making a global impact through a simple purchase of food.
Don & Nancy Asbury
Committee Member - 2015
Don keeps Packing Day moving — bins, bags, and loading vehicles — while Nancy preps and runs the order and money tables. "It feels good to help others."
Dennis Pool
Shoreline Covenant Rep - 2016
Dennis joined because STH is "a great way to share our gifts with others." He enjoys gardening and bonsai in his free time.
Working Together, We Can Make A Difference
We're looking for generous churches to buy apples, growers to share their harvest, and businesses to give in-kind. If you'd like to help, we'd love to hear from you.
