This project was successfully funded by a loan from Steward Regenerative Capital.
Astoria Food Hub is upgrading building infrastructure and equipment to enable local producers to meet the region’s growing demand for sustainable food products.
Located in the historic port city of Astoria on Oregon's north coast, Astoria Food Hub will support a resilient regional food system for diverse producers and consumers. The space will function as a central source to launch and grow sustainable food businesses, providing access to local cold storage, commercial kitchen space, distribution, marketing, and technical assistance, as well as retail, café, and educational experiences for visitors to learn more about regenerative food practices.
After a successful loan from Steward to fund the purchase of the 27,000 sq. ft. Mason, Ehrman & Co. building, this second loan disbursement will be used for construction, outfitting the building with critical infrastructure including a commercial kitchen, processing and distribution facilities, and onsite cold and dry storage.
The diverse collection of partnering producers at Astoria Food Hub are working towards a brighter future for regional economies, ecological vitality, and healthy and connected communities. Astoria Food Hub is committed to a myriad of regenerative and sustainable business practices, including:
