Local Farms Sell Over $80k in Product at One Event
On November 10th, The Willamette Farm and Food Coalition hosted its annual Fill Your Pantry event. Fill Your Pantry is a unique opportunity to buy staple and storage crops in bulk directly from area farmers.
The event generated $83,872 in revenue for local farmers while helping over 1500 local consumers stock up on locally grown food.
For some farms, this event makes a big difference in their financial stability as it helps them extend and expand their late season crops. For consumers, Fill Your Pantry offers a chance to stock up on a wide variety of long-lasting veggies, fruits, grains, beans, frozen foods, meat, honey, and more.
Eugene's Table is proud to sponsor this event and support Willamette Farm and Food's mission to facilitate and support the development of a secure, sustainable, and inclusive food system in Lane County, Oregon.
