Buy Fresh Buy Local – Green Country

Buy Fresh Oklahoma label

Green Country locavores can now check out the 2011 Farmers’ Market Guide for Green Country to find fresh locally-grown food in their community.  The Farmers’ Market Guide lists nearly 30 farmers’ markets, along with five farmstands, throughout northeastern Oklahoma, making it easier to Buy Fresh Buy Local.

As the first Buy Fresh Buy Local chapter in Oklahoma, BFBL-Green Country has had some major accomplishments since its inception in the spring of 2007, such as
successfully applying for a USDA Community Food Project grant; establishing the first annual Local Food Week in OK; printing and distributing thousands of farmers’ market and local food guides; and assisting with the formation of at least 6 new farmers’ markets in Green Country.

Buy Fresh Buy Local is a project of the FoodRoutes Network, in partnership with the Oklahoma Sustainability Network (OSN).  Sustainable Green Country (SGC) is a Tulsa-area Chapter of OSN and the coordinator of Buy Fresh Buy Local - Green Country. Tulsa County OSU Extension is a major partner working with SGC. Visit buyfreshbuylocalok.com for more information.

Contributions of time, money and other resources are always needed to allow this important work to continue and to expand.
