Think globally, act locally, impact the world through our community.
Local Rhoots started out of desperation. When founder, Sam Rodgers, was working outside the house, raising a small daughter and feeling like food carts for dinner were the only answer to the limited time she had in the evenings.
What started as a digital meal plan with meal prep business grew into a meal prep and delivery service in the Pacific Northwest and then expanded into a line of sauces and marinades.
Today we help customers in three ways:
Digital Weekly Meal Plans with Prep Guides
Flavor Bombs - Sauces & Marinades for easy awesome food
Weekly Meal Kits & ready-to-eat lunches delivered in 90% reusable packaging throughout the Gorge, Portland and Vancouver.
We seek to empower our customers to use local food resources wihle giving you the tools to make every day food easier.
We are thrilled to be feeding you.
the team
Success is never a solo achievement and its a lot more fun with awesome people. Over the last 5+ years, we have steadily grown our team with amazing individuals who bring a passion for helping others, a focused work ethic and an ability to make awesome happen each and every week we deliver.
reusable packaging
Packaging. It’s a really big deal. With all garbage we send out into landfills, it so more important than ever to consider where we can make in impact when it comes to packaging. We have worked closely with the Oregon Dept. of Agriculture to ensure that our reusable packaging and sanitation processes are safe, consistent and make health and safety the #1 priority.
the food
It wouldn’t be “Local. Sustainable. Meals.” without quality ingredients. We believe in creating a full circle between our local grower/producer community, our local team and commercial kitchen and our local customers. We want to food to travel as short a distance as possible. We work with local producers to source within the Gorge and greater Portland area as much as possible. From there, we source within the PNW before going beyond that to find quality ingredients to produce our amazing meals.
Local Rhoots offers a variety of gluten free options prepared in a designated area, however, we are not exclusively gluten free.
