Summer Picnic Supper August 3 at Willamette Park
Join us for an afternoon of grilled kebabs (meat and vegetarian), delicious cold salads, berry shortcakes and other delights made from locally grown ingredients. Some peaches and melons could find their way onto a grill.
The new Rotary picnic shelter in Willamette Park is the setting for our first Summer Picnic Supper. The shelter itself is a work of art, and this area features tall trees, river views/ access and playground equipment. The rest of the park includes walking trails, frisbee golf and more.
We'll serve from 3 to 5 p.m. The (invisible) doors open at 2:30 p.m.
Why are we raising money?
We are asking for financial help so that we can offer extra tokens to our neighbors who are using SNAP (formerly called food stamps) at the markets. (Other market expenses are covered by farmers' stall fees and membership.)
On days when we offer incentive tokens, customers who redeem at least $6 in SNAP from their Oregon Trail cards can get an additional $6 per market day to spend at the farmers' markets. So our local farmers benefit along with the shoppers.
These incentives help SNAP customers stretch their food dollars to buy healthier foods than they might otherwise be able to serve their families.
About 9,900 households in Benton County rely on SNAP for at least part of their nutrition. Help us welcome everyone to the farmers' markets.
