		<description><![CDATA[Everyone who attended the 2012 Chefs&#8217; Show-Off!  There were ample samples of food, wine, cider and, most of all, inspiration from the four women chefs representing popular restaurants in Benton, Linn and Lincoln counties.
After an hour and twenty minutes of thinking-on-their feet and efficient work to create an entree from an island of local ingredients, chefs Michelle Bursey (ONA Restaurant &#38; Lounge, Yachats), Kimber Hoang (Magenta, Corvallis), Regina Iovino (Iovino&#8217;s at Enoteca, Corvallis) and Karen Novak (Novak&#8217;s Hungarian Restaurant, Albany) had time to breathe and connect with their families and supporters. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oregon's Willamette Valley is one of the world's best places to produce food and crop seed because of our soils and micro-climates. Gardeners here are blessed with the pick of the best from some of the best seed producers in the country - and world.

The seeds produced by some of the companies of this list are organically-grown, open-pollinated and intended for the public domain. Those small-seed company propietors shun the idea of patenting life in the form of seeds. Seeds evolve over generations, adapting to their environment to remain healthy and vigorous. They should serve the people who grow them, not investors who may never have planted a seed.]]></description>

Corvallis’ Farm to School Program, run by the Corvallis Environmental Center’s Edible Corvallis Initiative, has been going for several years, offering monthly tasting tables at all public elementary schools and both middle schools in the district.  But this year, its expanding into a much more ambitious program, thanks in large part to a grant from the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA).
