Meeting in Fossil Re: Developing Direct-Market Opportunities for Local Food in Wheeler County

Those of you located near the border of Wheeler County might be interested in attending this networking event for local food buyers, sellers and producers:

Monday, April 5th
4-6pm
Wheeler County Family Services Conference Room
401 Fourth St.
Fossil, OR


This meeting will provide food buyers and sellers the chance to network, share information and discuss the upcoming growing season and direct-market opportunities.

Producers and processors of all agricultural products (vegetable, grain, fruit and livestock) are invited to attend, as well as buyers for grocery stores, restaurants, schools, caterers, hospitals, bakeries and other institutions. Please spread the work if you know of anyone in the region that would be interested!

There will also be an opportunity for discussions around other community interests and food projects—gardening, community and school gardens, farmers’ markets, nutrition, educational opportunities, etc.
