  • About Us

    About Us:

    Central Oregon Locavore’s mission is to promote local food and farmers for the health and benefit of the individual, our community, society, and the planet. We work for an ecologically stable and socially just food system in Central Oregon by improving access to fresh, nutrient-dense local food, educating the community about the benefits of sustainably produced food, and supporting farmers and ranchers.

    We envision a robust and diverse local food economy connecting consumers and producers, utilizing fair and sustainable practices, and cultivating food security for the health and enjoyment of our community. 

    • Founded in 2009, Central Oregon Locavore is a 501(c)3 non profit that has become an institution in Bend, selling millions of dollars of high quality, locally produced food to members of our community through a 7-day a week indoor farmers marketplace and hosting a variety of popular educational programs.
