This (9/21/23) and next week (9/28/23) are the final days for the Thursday Market on campus in Warm Springs.
The event has been anchored by the distribution of the free fresh harvest kits from the High Desert Food and Farm Alliance.
Four Acre Farm from outside Madras will be at the Market offering a variety of produce and fresh eggs for sale. They do accept Farm Direct Nutrition checks.
Stop by the KWSO booth at Thursday Market tomorrow and pick up a free Honey Bee’s cupcake and a KWSO jar opener.
