About Willamette Farm and Food Coalition
The Willamette Farm and Food Coalition is a community based non-profit committed to developing a more secure and sustainable food system within Lane County, Oregon. Our projects and services facilitate greater understanding of the social, economic, and environmental impacts of our food choices, and promote the purchase of locally grown and produced foods to keep our small farms viable and to strengthen the local economy. Our members represent a diversity of stakeholders in the local food system including: farmers, food processors, retailers, restaurateurs, consumers, anti-hunger advocates, children’s health advocates, faith communities, agricultural scientists, and environmental activists.
