Preserve What Matters: Help Launch Cascades Cannery

Cascades Cannery is officially a 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to preserve fresh, locally grown food that would otherwise go unused. But we need your help to build and grow the infrastructure that will make this dream a reality.

With your support, we’ll expand Central Oregon’s community-based cannery focused on supporting small local farms, reducing food loss, and increasing access to healthy, shelf-stable meals.

What Your Donation Supports:

• Building out our shared-use kitchen space
• Purchasing jars, lids, and preservation tools
• Sourcing farm-fresh produce
• Licensing Costs
• Packaging and distributing shelf-stable food to our community

Why This Matters:

Small farms often grow more than they can sell. At the same time, too many families in our region lack access to healthy, local food year-round.

Cascades Cannery bridges that gap by capturing the harvest and preserving it with care, so no good food goes to waste and more families are nourished with dignity.

How You Can Help:

• Make a one-time or recurring donation using the secure form on this page

• Share our mission with your friends, family, or workplace

Every dollar helps us jar fresh food, preserve local livelihoods, and build a healthier food system right here in Central Oregon. Thank you for being part of the solution.
