FRESH FROM THE FARM

If you’re passing through Corvallis, make a detour to the little town of Philomath and stop by the farm stand at Gathering Together Farm. Well known for the amazing produce they bring to many Portland-area farmers’ markets, this stand features all that and more, including potato doughnuts (made from their own potatoes), pastries, pickles, honey, jams, and salsa. Plus, they serve lunch Tuesday through Saturday, breakfast on Saturday, dinner every Friday, and wine dinners once a month.

25159 Grange Hall Rd. on Hwy. 20, Philomath | Farm stand hours: 9 a.m.–5 p.m., Tuesday–Saturday
