In celebration of cultural unity and respect, Harvest International welcomes poetry submissions in any language. International contributors are welcomed to submit as well.

Each issue, Harvest International awards two poetry prizes:

Submitted poems are automatically entered for consideration into their appropriate contest.

The winner must provide tax ID number or social security number, signature, and full legal name in order to receive payment from Cal Poly Pomona Foundation. The recipient has the right to refuse payment.
