BEND, Ore. — The High Desert Food & Farm Alliance (HDFFA) is calling on farmers, ranchers, and food businesses in Crook, Deschutes, and Jefferson counties, along with the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs, to join their network.
HDFFA partners strive to enhance our local food system. They work to make fresh and healthy food more accessible and to strengthen connections within the food community.
With a focus on good food for everyone, HDFFA provides an annual partnership program. This initiative aims to boost collaboration among local food producers and businesses in Central Oregon and to highlight their important work.
Joining as a partner comes with several benefits. Partners receive priority points for On Farm Efficiency Grants, free entry to HDFFA workshops and networking events, and an invitation to host Farm-to-Table dinners. Additionally, partners can showcase their offerings at Farmers Market tasting events and get listed on the online directory at tastecentraloregon.org.
Sign up by March 7, 2025, to be included in the 14th annual Food & Farm Directory. This free publication connects local residents and visitors with the region’s food offerings. The Directory will debut at the First Friday Launch Party in the Old Mill District on May 2, 2025, and will be available throughout the year via popular local publications and at Farmers Markets and businesses, reaching over 32,000 readers.
