We know you love 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!
Our Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program is now accepting applications! This program provides qualifying seniors with a $50 card to spend on fresh fruits and vegetables! You can apply online at https://oklac.org/ebt. You may also call our Farmers Market Facilitator at 918-259-7000 ext 7421!

Jamey Hooper is based in the Tulsa/Broken Arrow area. He started singing at the age of 5 and later sang at catholic school in the Boys’ Choir. He started writing and playing music at the age of sixteen. He decided that music would be his lifelong pursuit after he went to see the movie “Purple Rain”. Jamey’s songs are soul and pop piano compositions. They are heartfelt, passionate and inspirational. His current style influences are Gavin DeGraw, Billy Joel, Stevie Wonder, The Beatles and Prince. Some of Jamey’s favorite projects were being the Director for a sold-out Prince Tribute show as well as the Tom Petty Tribute show at The Shrine in Tulsa. Jamey plays at many local venues and is a regular performer within the Tulsa music scene. Jamey has two EP’s available: “Do Good and Disappear” and newly released “Freedom of Expression”, both produced by Kendal Osborne at The Closet Studios in Bixby. They are both available and can be found on all the major music digital platforms. You can also see Jamey’s videos on YouTube, “Sliver of Time” and “Only Now”.
