Second Harvest Truck Pull Challenge 2026

The Second Harvest Truck Pull Challenge is a unique team challenge that puts your strength and teamwork to the test. Teams of 10 compete head-to-head in a tournament format to pull a 20,000-pound delivery truck across Nathan Phillips Square in the fastest time, raising funds for Second Harvest’s food rescue and redistribution efforts.

About Second Harvest

Second Harvest is Canada’s largest food rescue organization. Our mission is to keep food where it belongs: on plates and out of landfills.

We rescue unsold surplus food from thousands of food businesses across the supply chain and redistribute it to non-profits in every province and territory. This work prevents harmful greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere while improving access to nutrition for millions of Canadians experiencing food insecurity.
