How to eat local in Eugene, Oregon

Buying local is good for you, good for your farmer, and good for the land. You can eat local right here in Eugene, Oregon! It's taken me a while to find my local farmers, but Eugene has so many amazing local food options that now I can't imagine eating without them.

Buying local meat and veggies is a great way to support your health and the health of the animals you end up eating! Factory farms and industrial agriculture are terrible: We’re talking about tons of pesticides being sprayed, ecosystems destroyed, and lives being defiled by poor living conditions.

The farms near Eugene where I buy my beef/buffalo support not just happy livestock, but also wild animals like bear, turkey, cougar, geese, ducks, deer, and even elk. At one of the farms there is a fenced garden for organic veggies, and it’s an amazing synergy between the needs of humans and nature.

To find a local farm, check out localharvest.org or your local farmers market where I found @mybrothersfarm or get out and drive the Eugene countryside like I did, looking for farm stand signs. That’s how I found Polyrock Ranch, where I buy beef! As always contact me if you need assistance and let’s support healthy food systems in Eugene, Oregon!
