The High Desert Food & Farm Alliance (HDFFA) would like to recognize food businesses going above and beyond with local food sourcing and contributions to our Central Oregon community. HDFFA considers local food to be that which is grown, raised and crafted in the Central Oregon high desert. Farmers and Ranchers voted for food businesses that purchase products regularly from them and those businesses that they consider leaders in local food. Please join us in congratulating farmers’ top picks and our 2019 Local Food Champions!
