We're working together to develop a thriving local food system in Coos, Curry, and Douglas counties. Our flagship initiative is the Seafood Project.
SWOFSC is exploring regional opportunities for economic development through food system analysis in Coos, Curry, and Douglas counties. Our goal is create economic uplift in the region by collaborating with local food industry experts.
Seafood Project:
On the south coast, a place with rich fishery resources and vibrant fishing history, many fishermen struggle to make a living on fishing alone and customers on the coast cannot find local fish to purchase. The Southwestern Oregon Food System Collaborative is working with local experts to improve the livelihoods of our fishermen and to move local fish into local markets.
