The most powerful way to support local farms and food producers - and to build a food system that is resilient, inclusive, and rooted in community care is to buy locally grown and raised food.
At Willamette Farm & Food Coalition, we connect our community to the bounty of the Willamette Valley through our annual Fill Your Pantry event, Locally Grown Guide, and Healthy Food for All program, which makes fresh, local food more accessible to all.
Whether you’re a farmer, food maker, or neighbor who loves to eat with the seasons, we believe good food should be accessible to everyone, and that it starts right here, at home.
Sign up for our newsletter and join us in growing a stronger, more equitable food system together.
Nourishing Our Community, Root by Root
Here at WFFC we know that care starts with food — the kind grown by real hands in real soil. When we share that food with one another, we’re doing more than filling plates. We’re tending to the health, dignity, and resilience of our whole community.
Right now, with the federal shutdown threatening supports like SNAP, we’re calling on our community to come together — farmer to neighbor, friend to friend — in mutual aid. Let’s make sure fresh, local, nourishing food stays on everytable, no matter what happens.
Your support keeps our homegrown food equity programs thriving:
Bucka Bucka Bucks – tokens that help families buy local eggs and meat.
Little Lettuce – tokens for kiddos to pick out their own fruits, veggies, and plant starts.
SNAP Match – doubling SNAP dollars at Fill Your Pantry and some local markets including Lane County Bounty and OG Corner Store.
Harvest Boxes – culturally meaningful food boxes for Tribal Elders and food-insecure neighbors.
We’re also growing an Emergency Buffer Fund — our way of saying “we’ve got each other’s backs.” When systems falter, community steps up. These funds will help to bridge any gap in food access if federal benefits are delayed or paused.
Every contribution — no matter the size — grows more than food. It grows care, sovereignty, and solidarity.
We’re aiming to raise $300,000 for our Healthy Food for All Fall Fundraiser — to keep this work rooted for the long haul, building a food system that’s equitable and resilient.
This is nourishment as resistance.
This is community care in action.
Give if you can. Share if you can’t. We all have something to offer.
