Community
Harvest Road Group is dedicated to engaging with and supporting local communities.
A Night Under the Stars
With many of our Harvest Road family located around the state with numerous hours on the road between sites, it’s hard not to miss the many painted blue trees, opening the conversation of mental health in regional communities. The Blue Tree Project, in conjunction with A Night Under the Stars, hold a yearly event. Harvest Road Group were proud sponsors of the event where we are provided an Akoya & Rock Oyster Bar and Harvey Beef brisket to the 700 attendees. The event is a cocktail gala, seeking to unite WA Communities to support regional mental health and to help bridge the gap and raise funds in rural WA for important projects which contribute to support mental health and wellbeing in regional areas.
