Harvest Homes
Touching Lives With Love
A nurturing and vibrant community that celebrates the golden years of life with dignity and joy.
Our Community
Just downriver from the iconic St. Johns Bridge and nestled on 2.5 idyllic acres near the Port of Portland, Harvest Homes has been a fixture in the St. Johns neighborhood of North Portland since 1965. For almost six decades, we have been touching lives with love by providing multi-level and multi-faceted care in our Assisted Living and Memory Care communities. We take great pride in our long legacy of care, having served hundreds and hundreds of older adults over the years, and strive to always go the extra mile for our residents and give them a special place to call home.
Celebrating our Deficiency Free Survey
The Oregon Department of Human Services completes biennial surveys at every community-based care facility in Oregon. In March of 2025, Harvest Homes Memory Care received a deficiency free survey. In a climate of increased regulatory oversight, deficiency free surveys are a rare occurrence. We are incredibly proud of our outstanding Memory Care team for this huge accomplishment.
A Tranquil and Comfortable Atmosphere
Harvest Homes was designed with the comfort of our residents in mind. All of our community’s communal spaces are airy, light-filled, spots with cozy and tranquil seating areas for conversation or relaxing. Our atrium-like dining room and sunroom with floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in and ensure that residents feel connected to nature, to the changing seasons, and to the wildlife just waiting to be discovered in our extensive campus gardens. Our chapel provides a place for weekly church services, quiet reflection, celebrations, and memorial services. Our expansive gardens give residents a place to stroll, enjoy the beauty of the native plants and trees that decorate our campus, cultivate their little plot of land, and listen to the nearby sounds of the working Willamette River.
Touching Lives With Love Since 1965
How do we create this special home? It begins with our tagline of “Touching Lives With Love.” For us, touching lives with love is not just a few words on a page. It is a daily call to action. We firmly believe that a strong community, excellent care, and a passionate commitment to serving seniors begin and end with love.
A Strong Community
At Harvest Homes, we know who we are. We work hard to build genuine and caring relationships with our residents, our residents’ families, our team, and our North Portland neighborhood. An on-site preschool and strong partnership with the University of Portland’s School Of Nursing ensure that Harvest Homes is a vibrant, intergenerational community.
A Passionate Commitment
At Harvest Homes, we know why we do what we do. Our team is passionately committed to making a difference in the lives of those we serve. We show up every day, ready to work, ready to help, and ready to make seniors feel seen, appreciated, and part of the Harvest Home family.
Excellence in Care
At Harvest Homes, we excel in providing top-notch, individualized care in a home-like setting. We believe great care isn’t just about services; it demands an understanding of each resident’s medical history and background. Our dedicated team takes the time to know each person, fostering a sense of belonging and ensuring all feel included.
A Joint Commission Gold Seal of Approval® Community
Harvest Homes was awarded the Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for Assisted Living Accreditation in September of 2025. Harvest Homes was the first assisted living community to receive Joint Commission accreditation in the state of Oregon.
The Joint Commission is a global health care organization that drives quality improvement and patient safety through a rigorous accreditation process. They have worked with more than 24,000 health care organizations around the world over more than 70 years to ensure safe, high quality, equitable and compassionate care for all. Harvest Homes underwent an onsite review team by Joint Commission reviewers and was evaluated for compliance with assisted living standards spanning several areas, including, but not limited to: emergency management, the environment of care, infection prevention and control, medication management, and leadership.
Together with the Vanda Health organization, the Harvest Homes team worked hard to prepare for the accreditation process. Preparations began in 2024 and included writing, revising, and formalizing written policies and procedures, aligning job descriptions, creating orientation check lists for new employees, and addressing additional environmental and emergency management regulations not covered under Oregon’s Administrative Rules (OARs).
Accreditation is the culmination and celebration of years of hard work and evidence of our team’s ability to stay dedicated and focused throughout a challenging and rigorous process. The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for Assisted Living showcases our daily commitment to providing safe, quality, equitable, and compassionate care for every Harvest Homes resident and is an important part of our legacy of touching lives with love.
