Kristy Athens of Good Groceries in Wallowa County, Eastern Oregon, joins Kim Allchurch Flick.
Athens recounts her path from generalist writer to food-systems specialist, including moving to rural White Salmon, writing “Get Your Pitchfork On,” earning an MS in Food Systems and Society, and launching a local gift-box business that evolved into Good Groceries, rebranded in 2024.
She describes Eastern Oregon’s short growing season and dominance of large-scale commodity agriculture, and how most residents rely on low-priced corporate groceries.
Good Groceries has grown yearly since 2020, prioritizing paying small farmers while acknowledging higher prices by donating $1 per sale to food pantries and accepting SNAP with Double Up Food Bucks.
Athens also supports local procurement as a liaison for the Oregon Farm to School Network, discusses pragmatic views on organic and soil care, notes logistical challenges of rural delivery, and urges listeners to buy from local food hubs, CSAs, farm stands, and farmers markets first—“Buy local is not a drill.”
