But that's not the only good news... We know you loved the Traveling Barnyard every first Saturday of the month, so now we are looking to expand our kid activities at the market by kicking off our Little Sprouts program! Every second Saturday of the month, we will be offering a different free activity for the kids; from coloring pages, seed planting, to creating their own bird feeders!
OH SNAP! Before we forget, our supplemental nutrition programs are expanding! We will now be offering DOUBLE UP OKLAHOMA (AKA DUO) this year! This program provides EBT recipients up to $20 a day to spend on fresh fruits and vegetables!
