About Gorge Grown Food Network

Gorge Grown Food Network serves as a central source to inform, empower, and connect local Columbia River Gorge farmers, food producers, farm workers, consumers, policy-makers, educators, health promoters, and food enthusiasts.

We're not a farm, CSA, cooperative, producers group or governmental organization. We help connect all of these folks together, along with Gorge residents looking for fresh, healthy, local food, to get more local food on every plate in the Gorge.

Simply, if you eat, farm or produce food and live in the Columbia Gorge region, you should be a part of Gorge Grown Food Network!

OUR MISSION: To build an economically and environmentally sound regional food system that engages, educates, and improves the health and well-being of our community.

We are a citizen-driven 501(c)3 with a regional focus, serving Gorge counties in Oregon and Washington:  Hood River, Wasco, Sherman, Klickitat, and Skamania Counties. We are an inclusive group! We welcome all farmers, food producers and consumers in the region to participate.

We envision a healthy, self-sufficient Columbia River Gorge where our food is produced with integrity and is valued, abundant, and accessible to all.

If you too are concerned about where and how your food is grown, want to support the local economy, ensure a livable wage for farmers, ensure access to healthy food for everyone regardless of income, and make the Columbia Gorge region ever more food self-sufficient, please join us! Now is an excellent time to join and assist in this community-based initiative.
