About Us

Give Portland is a woman-owned business founded in 2010. Inspired by the city our family has called home for four generations, we hand-select and curate the finest locally crafted artisan food and drink.

I come from a family of “foodies”. With one grandfather a chef and the other being a butcher here in Portland, I grew up learning the taste of home-made food with quality ingredients. At Give Portland, our goal is to search for and provide this same hand-made experience with the best artisan provisions Portland has to offer packaged in a beautiful way.

We believe in the power of local, which is why we meticulously taste and hand-pick every item from creators within a 25-mile radius of Portland, Oregon. This approach ensures exceptional quality, supports our local community, and reduces our environmental impact—all to provide a more meaningful and delicious gifting experience. Give a piece of Portland from our home to yours!

Community Commitment

In the spirit of giving and supporting the local community, Give Portland will donate a percentage of its proceeds to Ecotrust's Farm to School Initiative -  connecting local farmers with schools in order to get fresh, local ingredients into Portland Public School’s cafeterias.
