Take Meaningful Action This Holiday Season: Support Local Farmers with Your Meals, Treats, and Gifts

This campaign, now in its sixth year, aims to raise awareness and rally support for the vibrant food community of Washington state. To facilitate the farm-to-table journey, the Holiday Food & Farm Finder serves as a comprehensive guide, connecting consumers directly with over 2,200 local farmers, growers, producers, and businesses across the state. Whether local meat is on the menu or foodie gifts are called for, the Holiday Food & Farm Finder is an essential resource for crafting meaningful and delicious holiday experiences.

As Maressa Valliant, Eat Local First Director, shares, “Many of our local farmers and food artisans depend on holiday income during a time of year when harvests are less plentiful. Supporting them now means you can enjoy the fruits of their labor during the rest of the year, too!” Local food isn’t just about supporting farmers, either. In difficult times for food access, knowing where to find local resources for free and reduced-cost food is critical. Share this list or this list of businesses that provide free food and donate to a local food bank if you’re able.
