Harvest Homes Rcf is a nurturing and vibrant community dedicated to celebrating the golden years of life with dignity and joy. Located just downriver from the iconic St. Johns Bridge, this residence sits on 2.5 idyllic acres near the Port of Portland, providing residents with a peaceful and scenic environment. Since its establishment in 1965, Harvest Homes has been a cornerstone in the St. Johns neighborhood of North Portland, faithfully serving older adults for nearly six decades. With a longstanding tradition of excellence, the home is committed to providing multi-level and multi-faceted care through both Assisted Living and Memory Care communities.
The atmosphere at Harvest Homes was crafted with residents' comfort in mind. Communal spaces are bright, airy, and feature tranquil seating areas, inviting opportunities for conversation or quiet relaxation. The atrium-like dining room, designed with floor-to-ceiling windows, offers an abundance of natural light and breathtaking views. The adjoining sunroom continues this connection to nature, ensuring residents always feel attuned to the changing seasons and the wildlife that flourishes in the extensive campus gardens. In addition, the on-site chapel serves as a dedicated space for weekly church services, quiet reflection, celebrations, and memorial services.
One of the unique aspects of Harvest Homes is its emphasis on fostering community through intergenerational connections. An on-site preschool and a partnership with the University of Portland’s School Of Nursing ensure that the residence remains lively, energetic, and inclusive, bridging age groups and enriching the daily lives of residents. Expansive gardens provide a picturesque setting where residents can stroll among native plants and trees, enjoy the sounds of the nearby Willamette River, and even cultivate their own small plots of land. This connection to the outdoors is central to the spirit of Harvest Homes, encouraging well-being and engagement for all.
At the heart of Harvest Homes is its guiding philosophy: “Touching Lives With Love.” This mantra is more than a slogan—it is a daily commitment that infuses every interaction and service. The dedicated team strives to build genuine, caring relationships with each resident, fostering an authentic sense of belonging and family. With individualized attention to medical history and background, staff members ensure all care is tailored to each person, respecting unique needs and preferences while nurturing self-worth and appreciation.
