She sees KHFC as a hub for education, connection, food security, and economic resilience—something especially valuable in an island community.

Logan Korte

Logan believes that Kodiak Harvest is unique because it is Kodiak's only source of food that is member-driven as opposed to being controlled by a profit-driven corporation, and also offers nutritional variety that is not found anywhere else on the island. He believes that food can be medicine and therefore the Co-op provides essential health to the Kodiak community.
