Fill Your Pantry Bulk Food Buying Event Returns to Lane County
Willamette Farm and Food Coalition (WFFC) is hosting its 11th annual Fill Your Pantry- a farm direct, bulk buying event where customers can stock up on staple and storage crops to eat local all winter long! Last year WFFC connected over 450 households in Lane County to 22 different local farm vendors, all with a modified drive thru format while navigating COVID-19.
This event supports both customers and farmers by providing a viable market for local foods at a time of the year when many farmers markets are ending. Customers stock up on locally grown produce, grains, meat, honey and dried/frozen/canned goods so they can preserve seasonal flavors and eat local food all year round.
Fill Your Pantry will be on Sunday, November 14th and WFFC is aiming to raise $5000 through limited sponsorships from local organizations.
