Little Wings fall farm stand is open for business outside of Tacovore on 5th & Blair in Eugene, Oregon’s historic Whiteaker neighborhood. The farm stand has continued to set up shop throughout the Fall season on Thursdays from 2-6 p.m. after a successful Summer at the Whiteaker Community Market.

 

Adam Vern, known personally by many Whiteaker residents for his role at the Little Wings farm stand, tends the farm stand and helps customers, answering any questions they may have along the way.
