Oklahoma Food Cooperative



The Oklahoma Food Cooperative
(I found the link to this site through the Oklahoma Homeschool blogger. To find the homeschool blogger for your state click the blogger link and replace "Oklahoma" at the end with the name of your state. I find this website extremely helpful in finding local events and organization.)

It is to late for me to join this year, and most of you will probably think the same. However, every Oklahoman reading the blog should seriously consider joining next year and/or pass the word about the organization.

It is important to support local growers. These people are your friends, family, neighbors and so on, and they are just trying to make a living like you are. So instead of contributing to China, Mexico, Canada, or anywhere else your grocery products may come from make an effort to buy locally. Not only will you be supporting local farmers, your city, and your state, but also the country and a healthier future for your children.
