Visit the new CROPS blog.
County CROPS (Community Reaps Our Produce and Shares), a Multnomah County initiative led by Chair Cogen, is a two-acre community farm in Troutdale that benefits the Oregon Food Bank. Low-income families who live in the county receive fresh fruits and vegetables that are grown at the CROPS site.
Now in its second planting of the season, CROPS has its own website and blog. For photo updates, delicious recipes, farmer profiles and event announcements, visit web.multco.us/crops. Interested in volunteering at the CROPS farm? Contact Hands On Greater Portland to find out how.
Check out the slideshow to the right for photos of the season's second planting.
