Become an OFMA Member!
Happy New Year! The 2015 OFMA membership drive is now open!
In 2014, with the help of your membership dollars, OFMA was able to:
- advocate for farm-direct marketing across the state
- print and distribute 25,000+ farmers' market directories across the state
- develop an online searchable market map
- apply for federal funding for rural SNAP incentives with partner organizations
- contribute to the nationwide conversation about changing technologies MarketLink, SNAP and eWIC
We will continue to advocate for markets in 2015, but we need your help to do so. Please register or renew your membership for 2015 today.
Renewing your membership? It's easier than before:
- Log in and verify your organization’s existing information is current and correct. If you have forgotten your user name or password, follow the prompts after clicking the “Lost your password?†link.
- Update the dates, times, locations and other details for markets you operate.
- Pay your membership dues via Paypal or check. When we receive your payment, you will be entered into the searchable market directory and the 2015 printable pdf directory.
Joining for the first time?
First time member markets, vendors or other farmers market supporters: please complete the registration form. Markets who have never been OFMA members pay only $25 for the first year but receive the same valuable benefits as other members!
Attention All:
To receive a $20 discount for the OSU Small Farms Conference, markets must pay their OFMA dues AND register for OSU's early bird registration by February 2nd, 2015. Once you have paid your dues, you can register for the conference here. Markets whose payments are received afterward will pay the full price at the conference. The conference is where OFMA's Annual Meeting and farmers market conference sessions occur. We do not want you to miss it!
You can pay membership dues by Paypal here or by check. Please make checks payable to Oregon Farmers' Markets Association and send to:
