Urban Farm Collective has been chosen to participate in Willamette Week’s 2011 Give!Guide.
The Give!Guide provides an opportunity for you to support some of Portland’s best nonprofit organizations,
and get great incentives and prizes in return! It’s a fabulous way to support the amazing work of
the Urban Farm Collective whose mission is to transform vacant lots into local food gardens.
The Tin Shed garden cafe will match the first $500 dollars donated to the Urban Farm Collective, dollar for dollar!
Please take this opportunity to help us with this grassroots effort to make healthy, fresh food accessible to all people.
The Give!Guide went live yesterday, and donations are accepted through midnight on December 31st.
Check it out! wweek.com/giveguide.
Your gift will help the Urban Farm Collective bring this diverse community together around the idea
of providing fresh, sustainably grown, local produce to everyone, not just the folks who can afford it.
UFC also provides hundreds of pounds of fresh produce to the St. Andrews food pantry which serves
over 200 low-income and minority families each month.Give today!
Here’s what you can do:

to support our cause and earn valuable and fun incentives in the process.

Give a donation in someone’s name — a great holiday gift! After you complete your donation on the GiveGuide site,
send an email to urbanfarmcollective@gmail.com with the name and address of the person you would like to honor
with the gift. We’ll send them a hand-written card with some UFC veggie seeds notifying them of the gift you made in their name.
Thank you for joining the Urban Farm Collective build sustainable communities, and making
fresh, local produce available to everyone!
Your support is much-needed, and greatly appreciated! Sincerely,
