We are a small market with a big heart, tending to and nourishing our community since 2009.

Providing highly nutritious, freshly grown produce from local organic farmers within a 100-mile radius of Eugene. Working within this small network strengthens our community and grows our food security, keeping our soil, air, and water clean with sustainable regenerative agriculture.

We also have an amazing garden and community space and provide the backdrop for a beloved pumpkin display. So many hearts, minds, and hands joining in to create a truly epic sight to behold.

We are in imminent danger of losing our community food hub. The property is selling to a chain convenience store. Not what River Rd needs or wants. The sale involves both sides of Thomason Lane. Four tax lots. One large one acroos the street, and 3 on our side. We need to find someone to buy the property across Thomason Lane. If that were to happen, I have almost enough pledged in loans to cover my side of the property. We are currently $135,000 short. If everyone who viewed the video gave $3.00, we would have it!

Hello all,

After such an outpouring of support and interest, a lot of things have changed, and we are shifting gears. Our landowner is leaning towards not selling the property and having the community figure out a better way to develop this property. Yaaay! We are looking forward to signing a long-term lease and rent increase. We are working on creating a food pod similar to the Friendly Garden area, possibly with a value-added processing kitchen for farmers and other food crafters to use. I will be changing the gofundme for the funds to be used for signing a long term lease, to cover our rent increase until we can get up to speed, and some infrastructure needed on my side of the property. Once I figure out what is needed, I will lower the amount needed. I wanted to give everyone a choice to get back their donations since we are moving from land purchase to a lease. Please let me know if you desire to have your donation refunded. If you would like what you pledged to go towards our future efforts, we would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your support. Cheers to hopefully many more years of nourishment and connection!
