Dear community,

My name is Noémie and I am the owner of Farm D'ICI in Canby,OR.

I am coming to you today for your support.

Over the last 3 years I have received funding through the Oregon food bank. We have distributed weekly food boxes in partnership with Growing Gardens to people that would not necessarily have access to this quality and quantity of fresh produce otherwise.

We have provided our community with over 13,000 lbs of food and helped nourish 75 families. This year we've also had the chance to distribute produce through school pantries in SE Portland.

With the plummeting federal support, the grant that I was receiving, funded by the USDA and the Local Food Purchase Assistance Agreement is no longer available. This grant has changed the trajectory of our farm and we have been able to feed so many more people. I want to continue providing food to the community and your support will make it possible.

My goal is to raise $30,000. That will allow me to continue feeding 44 families weekly, for 20 weeks, in 2026. Each $38 donated will provide one weekly box.

Every dollar counts and I am forever grateful to be able to do this work with you.

I know there are so many ways to spend your dollar, so thank you for considering supporting this project. Let's keep coming together to take care of one another.
