Gratitude Gathering - A Free Fall Festival by Hillsboro Food Co-op

Our Gratitude Gathering is a celebration of community, connection, and the shared spirit that brings our co-op to life. As we work toward opening our community-owned grocery store, we want to pause and express heartfelt thanks — to our members, volunteers, future patrons, and local farmers who make this dream possible. This fall festival is our way of giving back: an evening filled with crafts, games, local vendors, and the simple joy of being together. It’s also an opportunity to support the small family farms and makers who will one day fill our store shelves and nourish our community. Rooted in the cooperative principle of concern for community, this gathering is about deepening our relationships — with one another, with our food, and with the people who grow it. Come together with friends and neighbors to celebrate the harvest season and show gratitude for our community. Gratitude grows community, and we can’t wait to celebrate that with you.

The overall event and activities are free, but there is an option to purchase a $45 ticket to the Thanksgiving Pumpkin Centerpiece Crafting Workshop led by Farmington Gardens from 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM. Fall-themed snacks, sweets, and beverages will also be available for purchase.

Don't miss out on this special event - see you at Merrill Gardens downtown Hillsboro location!
