Holy Cow Foods is a multi-dimensional, family -owned, organic food business started in 1990 with the simple objective of promoting sustainable agricultural practices--which we define as local and organic. To this end we have created products which are sold in stores, catered events large and small, and opened an all organic vegetarian cafe on the University of Oregon campus. The Holy Cow Cafe began in 1997 determined to serve all local produce. As luck would have it we were slightly ahead of our time, and were unable to find enough local produce to supply demand during the months when the University is opened. Over the years we created a network with just about every local farmer in the area, together with OrganicallyGrownCompany's greater ability to pull produce from where it grows during the winter.

Sick of green-wash? People who point out the couple of items that appear green? Like: who recycle (& there is infrastructure in their town to do so). We're the kind of company that jumps the cow before the cart. Like: We compost the organic scraps we create, before there was infrastructure to do so (& with the synergy of helping the NW Youth Corps, too). We introduced durable wares into a throw way culture of a food mall, no infrastructure. We keep pushing the edge, changing things bit by bit.
