Remember the huge meeting at North Eugene in October, 2017 where over 400 people gathered to start working on the River-Road – Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan? Draft action plans are complete and we would like everyone in our Santa Clara neighborhood to come to our Pumpkin Pie and Planning event.
Join your neighbors and celebrate all the work that has gone into the River Road-Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan! After lots of hard work by community volunteers and staff, we have a draft action plan to share and get input on. Socialize and meet your neighbors as you learn what’s happening in the neighborhoods and provide feedback on the draft action plan. Come out to enjoy free pumpkin pie and harvest-themed activities. Whether new to the neighborhood or an already active member, everyone is encouraged to jump in and forge new connections, strengthen old ones and envision the future of the River Road and Santa Clara community!

The River Road Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan is charting a vision for the future of the two neighborhoods. A key goal of the Plan is to improve River Road, the major street that runs from Santa Clara, through River Road, and connects the neighborhoods to central Eugene. As one of the major transportation routes in the Eugene area, River Road is important to neighborhood residents, the Eugene-Springfield community, and regional travelers. In addition it was identified as a key corridor through Envision Eugene, the community’s long-range vision. For more information, please go to https://www.eugene-or.gov/4110/Corridor-Study
The diagrams below and many, many more are included in the survey. Please let the city know your feelings on the various concepts.

Fill Your Pantry is a unique opportunity to buy staple and storage crops in bulk directly from area farmers. Buying and storing local crops in our households is a tangible way you can support our small farms and ensure that you have delicious to eat local all winter.
For some farms, this event makes a big difference in their financial stability as it helps them extend and expand their late season crops. For consumers, Fill Your Pantry offers a chance to stock up on a wide variety of long-lasting veggies, fruits, grains, beans, frozen foods, meat, honey, and more. Support your local food system AND increase your winter self-sufficiency at the same time.
See the Willamette Farm and Food Coalition website for more details.
