From their website-
OUR MISSION: To build an economically and environmentally sound regional food system that engages, educates, and improves the health and well-being of our community.”
“Gorge Grown Food Network evolved from discussions generated after the Columbia Gorge Earth Center showed the film, “The True Cost of Food” as part of their Film and Lecture series. The film revealed that the average meal travels 1500 miles from farm to dinner plate. With the costs of oil skyrocketing, the need for more local farming and food production becomes ever more vital. “
