Support Our Mission

Help Connect Communities Through Food

We strive to operate the Oregon Taste directory as a reliable and trusted source for connection to Oregon farmers, growers, makers and sellers of Oregon food. We build Oregon Taste knowing that connecting Oregonians directly with the farmers, fishers and ranchers, roadside stands, u-pick fields and orchards of our great state will contribute to a more vibrant, sustainable and connected food system throughout Oregon. Oregon Taste is a public service project by James Beard Public Market, a State of Oregon 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, committed to establishing a daily year-round, indoor/outdoor marketplace showcasing Oregon's food bounty.

There are several ways to support Oregon Taste and James Beard Public Market.
