Thank You For Attending!

We enjoyed meeting all of you who attended the OFMA member dinner, annual meeting and farmers market sessions at the Small Farms Conference. OFMA's volunteer board of directors works year-long to plan the meeting and organize the panels. We are trying to identify ways to serve your markets even better by improving the annual meeting events. Please provide input by completing this online evaluation.

Online Farmers Market Finder is Live!

Some of you received a sneak-peak of our online Farmers Market Finder at the Annual Meeting. Now anyone can use it to find your market or any other market that is an OFMA member. They just need to visit www.oregonfarmersmarkets.org/market-finder.  We encourage you to link to the finder from your website so your customers can find a farmers market wherever they travel.  

Welcome Our New Board Members!

At the Annual Meeting, our members voted in four new board members and renewed Mary Ellen De Luca's term. Please welcome Spencer Masterson, MaryLee Planer, Abby Warren and Jim Wilson! We thank them for volunteering their skills, perspective and time to our mission of sustaining and promoting Oregon's farmers markets. 

We are also proud to announce that Laura Conroy is joining us as a board advisor at-large!
