Each meal kit is designed by HDFFA and includes all the ingredients needed for a three-course meal: recipes for an appetizer and entree, a prepared dessert, your choice of beverage and a Spotify playlist for you to enjoy while you cook. Choose between Vietnamese style Pork Meatballs w/ Brothy Rice or Roasted Cauliflower Steaks w/ Chermoula, Crispy Chickpeas and Garlicky Greens. Kits are available with vegetarian, dairy and gluten-free options. The delectable VIP meal is designed and made by a Cascade Culinary Institute chef and will be ready to eat as soon as you pick it up!
To participate, purchase your meal kit online at HDFFA’s Store by Friday, September 23rd. On October 7th, folks can pick up their order at the Cascade Culinary Institute where HDFFA will deliver right to your car! Interested in delivery? Pay an extra $10 and HDFFA will deliver your meal directly to your home. Event details are on HDFFA’s homepage or at hdffa.org/harvestbox22.
“Since 2018, HDFFA has provided over 13,600 meals through our Fresh Harvest Kit project. This annual fundraiser takes that meal kit model and allows us to showcase many of the remarkable Partners we work with, while also raising awareness and funds for our programs. We hope this event further connects our community to local food in a fun and interactive way.” -Katrina Van Dis, Executive Director
HDFFA believes everyone deserves good food–defined as fresh, affordable and culturally appropriate foods that are sustainably produced in Central Oregon. As part of their mission, HDFFA improves access to local food from regional farmers for limited-income residents through various programs. Proceeds from this event will support their Food Access and Agricultural Support programs. This includes the Fresh Harvest Kit project: HDFFA collaborates with local farms and hunger relief agencies to offer meal kits at regional food pantries and community organizations. These ready-to-make meal kits combine fresh vegetables and pantry staples, along with a recipe, to create a nutritious and delicious meal on a budget.

Sometimes the photo comes together with ease, other times it takes a dozen tries. From start to finish this is an intimate look at what it takes to get that one perfect shot.”

Why can’t farmers and farm workers afford to put food on the table? How do the very people that grow our food go hungry? High Desert Food and Farm Alliance is honored to welcome Jillian Hishaw to the (virtual) stage as she talks about the work she is doing in farming communities to reduce rates of food insecurity. Rural hunger is often a forgotten topic of focus in farming communities. According to the USDA, 84% of U.S. counties with the highest percentage of childhood hunger are rural. Through F.A.R.M.S., Hishaw has focused on procuring and donating produce in rural farming communities over the past eight years. Over one million pounds of produce have been donated in and outside of the US. The importance of infrastructure in rural communities and communal resolutions are essential to rural America’s revitalization.
Funding for this event is provided through a USDA Community Food Projects (CFP) grant.

Are you a thrill seeker with a heart for your community?
Face your fears. So our community’s most vulnerable don’t have to.
It’s scary for those who wake up in the morning not knowing where they will sleep that night, if they will eat that day, if they will be assaulted or abused that day.
On Saturday, September 7, 2019, OVER THE EDGE participants will help alleviate some of that daily fear faced by so many… by rappelling off the roof of the Oxford Hotel in downtown Bend.
You’re invited to rappel, volunteer, or sponsor the event!
Edgers – those who rappel – are invited to raise funds to support our community in exchange for the exhilarating experience of rappelling off the tallest building in Central Oregon. The Oxford Hotel stands at 7 stories and 70 feet and will offer quite a thrill to Edgers.
Participants need not be brave or young or non-disabled to go OVER THE EDGE. However, there are a limited number of spots, so interested folks should sign up today, as registration is now open. Once registered, Edgers set up a personal fundraising page, reach their fundraising goal, and secure their spot to rappel off the Oxford Hotel on September 7th.
In addition to the rappel, United Way will be hosting a ground party – closing NW Minnesota Ave and NW Lava Rd to traffic in order to host food vendors, a Sunriver Brewing Company beer garden, activities, DJs, and more.
For those who are not ready to rappel, United Way gives other opportunities to partner with one of Bend’s most reputable and longest-standing nonprofit organizations. The local nonprofit is seeking business sponsors for the event, as well as volunteers.
To sign up or for more information, visit www.deschutesunitedway.org/overtheedge or call 541-389-6507.
