Organic Matters, the Oregon Organic Coalition

Your food choices are connected to the health of soil, water, climate, and community. Organic agriculture offers a way to grow food that nourishes all of these at once while supporting long-term environmental and human health.

Across Oregon and beyond, farmers, advocates, and communities are working together to expand organic practices and strengthen local food systems. These efforts help build a more resilient, climate-friendly future for agriculture and the people it feeds.

Stop by the Organic Matters booth, grab a tasty organic snack, and hang out with us! You’ll learn what “organic” really means, how your everyday choices can support farmers, soil, and a healthier planet—and kids can jump into a fun station with crafts and hands-on activities!
