* Last updated 01/01/21 – we’ll keep updating this post as additional resources and business services/locations are announced* We are still under the Extreme Category and in a ‘freeze’ to reduce COVID-19 transmission, per the State of Oregon and Governor Brown,  which means that many businesses remain either closed or offering limited services in order to remain in alignment with state mandates.

 

Local and family-owned businesses are the lifeblood of our community, and while we are all navigating these unprecedented times, our local business community needs us now more than ever

This is a stressful time for many restaurants and small business owners; Bend is known for its craft beers and breweries, fresh roasted coffee and gathering places, and delicious foodie hot spots. In a time where we’re practicing social distancing, we may not be able to physically eat out or meet for drinks right now, but we can remain strong in support of our friends, neighbors, and fellow local business owners. We’re all in this together! 

Please continue to support our local businesses. We’re lucky to live in a place filled with entrepreneurs and small businesses; let’s do what we can to support them through this extraordinary time so we can continue to enjoy their services, products, food, and drinks long after the pandemic is over.
