What is the Market Basket Program?

Welcome to the OHSU Market Basket program formerly known as the After-Hours Pick-Up program where you can pre-purchase fruits, vegetables, breads, dips and meat from the OHSU Farmers Market and pick it up after the market is over.

Many of our busy staff at OHSU cannot make it to the market from 11:30-3:30 but want to support local farmers and bring home some fresh goods. This program will ensure a better sales day for our vendors and make the most seasonal, fresh, delicious food accessible after work. Your feedback will help guide our selections, so please let us know your thoughts and which products you are most interested in. Thank you again for your continued support of locally produced foods. Your purchase promotes the health of our future!
