After-Hours Produce Pick-Up Program |
 The 1st produce bag list will be sent out Tuesday night after the July 1st farmers market. Pre-purchases of bags can be made from Wed, July 2nd, 8am through Thurs, July 3rd, 8pm at It's All Good on the 9th floor of South Hospital. # of participants limited to 100 as we begin this program. To sign up for the list, you must add your e-mail to the the After-Hours Newsletter contact list by clicking here and updating your profile.
Why this program? Many of our busy staff at OHSU cannot make it to the market from 11:30-3:30 but want to support local farmers and bring home some fresh goods.
This program will ensure a better sales day for our vendors and make the most seasonal, fresh, delicious food accessible after work. There are a few important details to know in order to make this a smooth and delightful offering. Number of participants limited. Please read our After-Hours Produce Newsletter for more details. | |
Pass this e-mail on to a colleague or suggest they sign up for their own newsletter on our website. We invite you to come and support your local food producers in the Auditorium Courtyard near the Mackenzie Hall Fountain off Sam Jackson Road near the Plaid Pantry. See you Tuesday from 11:30-3:30!
