Josephine County Emergency Management

Josephine County Food Bank
The Food Bank has been a fixture in Josephine County since 1990. Originally we were part of the Josephine County Community Action Agency and were run as a program of the county. During these years, we served hungry individuals and families all over the county and built some of our longest-lasting relationships.
In 2005 the County discontinued funding for the Food Bank and the United Community Action Network stepped in and the Food Bank began to grow. In 2010 a community collaboration among the City of GP, UCAN, Rotary Clubs of GP, and local donors resulted in the construction of a new 10,000 square foot food storehouse and the establishment of Raptor Creek Farm, located on the property to grow food for local families.
Today, the Josephine County Food Bank is a stand-alone, independent non-profit organization. We continue to serve our community from our food distribution center at Raptor Creek Farm located at 3658 Upper River Road in Grants Pass.
