After-Hours Produce Pick-Up pilot

OHSU is a working environment and we know that not everyone has time to visit the market. This pilot project will service those customers. We will work with our vendors to offer a standard bag of market produce for several hours near south hosptial after the market has closed. Selections will change weekly depending on availability. We hope to accomodate the day, swing and night shift employees with this offering. Offer limited to 1st 100 people that sign up for pilot, although # of participants allowed may increase depending on interest.
