Welcome to Know Thy Food!

We are so glad you found us!

We are a direct-to-consumer food buying club connecting our members with local farms, food producers and wholesale distributors in the Portland, Oregon and surrounding areas. We are committed to making high quality foods and other goods available to our members at fair prices; helping to sustain our families and communities, and foster a healthy, vibrant local food economy.

We also love connecting families and children to the land and the people who grow the food we eat, and appreciate the opportunity to provide a place where farmers can connect with the community they feed. We offer a year round online farmers market.

We are constantly growing and evolving to meet our members’ needs for great local foods and other items with a freshness, quality and value that you simply cannot find in a grocery store.

MAY 2010 GRAND OPENING

We have just secured a warehouse location in the Brooklyn neighborhood in inner SE Portland that will serve our growing membership base. The address is 3434 SE Milwaukie Ave, Portland, OR 97202. Our current hours of operation are Tuesdays from 10 am to 8 pm, with member pick up between 4-8 pm. Once a month, we also take delivery from two of our wholesale distributors and have a special pick up that week on Thursday and Friday (exact hours subject to change). Please consult our calendar for exact drop dates.

Our online ordering application is based on the successful Oklahoma Food Co-op system, but scaled down for just one pick-up site. In the future, we may contract with Portland Pedal Power to arrange home deliveries.
