We have been working diligently on a new business plan for our farm since March 2017. We needed to be realistic about markets, to analyze how we can streamline our time and effort, and to analyze how to supply the freshest Certified Organic products. We are excited finally to share our new plans with you!
We have made our first delivery of produce to Community Merchants! We anticipate making deliveries on Tuesdays and keeping the same prices at Community Merchants and at our farm. We will not be providing dried teas, dried herbs, eggs, garlic, washed salad greens, kale or spinach to Community Merchants. When we drive into La Grande on Tuesdays, we can continue to make deliveries of eggs and other products along the way.
Big Change: Eggs and fresh products will be available at our farm stand only by special order. Freshly picked special orders will go into the ice chest in the farm stand on the day of pick-up by customer. Special orders may be placed by telephoning (541) 562-5465 or emailing manager@dorasgarden.com.
Self-serve Farm Stand at 1393 N Cove Street/Hwy 237, Union, OR
Open 7 am to 7 pm every day from May 1st through October 31st
