The popular Oregon Farm Loop gift guide is here!

This year giving thoughtful and unique gifts while supporting local family farms is important. It has been a tough year for small businesses as they fight to stay afloat and continue to provide you with the products and services you love. Think about buying gifts and holiday foods from your local producer this December. We have some great suggestions! The Oregon Farm Loop has something for everyone on your list as well as great food items for the holiday table. Not sure what to get from a specific location but want to support them? Ask if they have gift cards!

Re-opening to sell poinsettias! Get your big, beautiful holiday tradition right from the grower. Normally they do not sell them directly to the retail customer. Due to Covid-19, Egan Gardens lost several of their school fundraisers so they decided it would be best to open the doors to the public. So get your stunning poinsettias and support the farm at the same time. See updates and photos here.
