Champoeg Creek Farm received a $199,584 Project Grant award from the US Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service under the Meat and Poultry Inspection Readiness Grants – Supplemental Funding program (CFDA 10.180). The grant funds will allow the small, rural Oregon poultry farm to upgrade its state-inspected processing facility to meet federal inspection standards, enabling it to supply pasture-raised turkey and other poultry products to wholesale buyers with locations in both Oregon and Washington. Currently only able to serve the Oregon needs of its five to seven key wholesale customers, the facility improvements funded by this award will significantly increase Champoeg Creek Farm's production and sales volumes by allowing it to access the interstate wholesale market as well. Completion is slated for September 2024.
