Gathering Together Farm is an organic vegetable farm in Philomath, Oregon growing since 1987, selling through a farmstand, CSA shares, farmers markets and its own farm restaurant.
Gathering Together Farm has grown organic produce at Philomath, Oregon since 1987, when John, Sally and a few friends set out to give one local restaurant a wider choice of organic vegetables.
Today the farm supplies the Willamette Valley through farmers markets, grocery stores, restaurants and a CSA, and works with students and researchers on everything from school tours to dry farming trials.
At the farm, the farmstand sells GTF produce, fresh baked pastries and other local goods from Wednesday to Saturday, with a farm to table restaurant alongside. They also run market stalls at Portland State University, Beaverton, Corvallis and Newport on Saturdays and Hillsdale on Sundays.

We got a tour of the grounds from a worker. It was a beautiful working farm and the staff seemed very happy. I bought some garlic from the store and it was the best.
This is THE place for top notch quality food and incredibly kind staff! If only I didn't live 907 miles to return!!!
Great homemade pizza! Fresh farm to table salad!!
One of the worst restaurant experiences I've had in a long time. Waiting nearly an hour for a single pizza is unacceptable. The restaurant was clearly understaffed, and the service suffered because of it. The wait became even more frustrating considering the pizza itself was overly salty and nothing special. Management needs to address the staffing issue and improve kitchen efficiency. Customers shouldn't have to spend hours waiting for a basic order. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

Truly a fantastic experience. the all season dining area with sliding glass windows, the corrugated clear glass paneling of the roofing keeps the area light and homey. Coupled with a farmstand full of delicious and fresh produce, an ever evolving menu of true farm-to-table and a keystone for the Philomath community for a generation.
Wow, just wow. I was visiting my dear friend, who works at the Gathering Together Farm (GTF), and this was the most wonderful lunch! The restaurant is lovely, the farm is so beautiful, the foodddd….is SO GOOD, and the staff were so friendly and kind. Thanks for an amazing meal! Pastries, coffee, burgers were so yummy, and I’m sure everything else on the menu is to! True farm to table spot with a seasonal menu.
Lovely patio and fresh offerings from the garden. Burger was delicious and the salad was fresh picked, but there was so much lettuce and not much flavor from the dressing (for my tastebuds anyway). Tried the potato doughnuts and a fig hazelnut danish (amazing) and coffee at the picnic tables in the flower garden.
Gathering together farm is an amazing farm to table style restaurant with a simple menu based off of what is in season. Whatever is on the menu will not disappoint you! The restaurant is only open for dinners during the warmer months of the year. I would recommend dining outside right around golden hour to experience the full atmosphere of farm country. We look forward to when it opens every year, and can’t wait to be back. Keep up the great work!
Had a great dinner here while visiting Oregon. This is a farm to table restaurant and the farm is on the property. The menu changes depending on the produce they have. We visited during tomato and corn season and I'm so glad we did as those are 2 of my favorite veggies. If you go you must get the lemonade. I had the blackberry lemonade and my husband had the basil lemonade. Both were great, but if you're more of a sweets person I would get the blackberry. I ordered the sweet corn and tomato soup as an appetizer and it had 3 flavor profiles. The main flavor was smokey, but with a bit of sweet and spicy. It was absolutely delicious. The sweet corn and tomato pizza was unlike any other pizza I had. The corn was deliciously sweet and the tomatoes tasted unlike anything you could get in the store. The crust was crispy and soft at the same time. Margarita pizza was a classic and you can't go wrong with that. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy and everything blended well on that plate with the corn, sauce, green beans, and peppers. The dessert, while delicious, didn't really stand out. We ordered the apple turnover and it was definitely good and the apples were fresh and juicy, but it didn't wow me. The service and atmosphere are great. All the staff is friendly and they are very knowledgeable about the menu.
