Applegate Valley Connect (AVC) Ever wonder where to find a yoga class, music event or local eggs in the Applegate? We love our valley’s wide-open spaces, but living without a “Main Street” can make it difficult to find our region’s resources and opportunities. This is where Applegate Valley Connect comes in. Think of this website as your digital coffee shop—a place to find and share the latest news, local events and business information–as well as “mingle” with your Applegate neighbors and visitors. Our goal is to bridge people together so that our local economy and landscapes flourish. AVC is crowd-sourced and costs nothing to use. Need volunteers for a project? Want to get the word out about your new supper club? Create your account and start posting!

Services available on AVC include:

  • Community Calendar: find events big and small, share your events!
  • Directory: find a local business or community organization’s information, or list yours!
  • News & Stories: read and share exciting local news
  • Projects: read about and share current community projects
  • Volunteer: looking to volunteer? looking for volunteers?
