    Sweet Grown Alabama Day Celebrates Locally Grown Agriculture

    On Saturday, July 13, Sweet Grown Alabama, the state’s non-profit agricultural branding program, hosted the third “Sweet Grown Alabama Day”. Fourteen farmers markets across the state participated with special events and Alabama farms who are a part of the Sweet Grown Alabama program also participated. 

    Gov. Kay Ivey issued a proclamation declaring July 13, 2024 “Sweet Grown Alabama Day.” 

    “Buying local ensures transportation emissions are cut down and helps Alabama sustain production to provide for our people; and whereas, healthy eating and access to locally grown products through farmers markets and farmers are foundational to the quality of life for all Alabamians… Now, therefore, I Kay Ivey, Governor of Alabama, do hereby proclaim July 13, 2024, as Sweet Grown Alabama Day,” read part of the proclamation. 

    While the special day allowed community members to engage with farmers across the state, Sweet Grown Alabama is dedicated to boosting marketing opportunities for Alabama farmers by bridging the gap between retailers and consumers of Alabama-grown foods and other agricultural products. 

    “Not only do you receive the best products around when you support farmers, you are also helping support Alabama’s economy,” said Sweet Grown Alabama Assistant Director Aisling Walding. “Purchasing local on Sweet Grown Alabama Day is an easy, fun way to say thank you to the farmers who work hard every day growing our food and other agricultural products.” 

    Agriculture is one of Alabama’s largest industries, accounting for over $70 billion economic impact annually. Studies show that for every dollar spent locally, 60 cents stay within Alabama’s economy. Consumers can ensure their hard-earned money stays in Alabama when purchasing Sweet Grown Alabama products. 

    Farmers markets who participated in Sweet Grown Alabama Day with special events included: 

    • Albertville Farmers Market 
    • City of Wetumpka Farmers Market 
    • Coastal Alabama Farmers and Fishermens Market 
    • Helena Market Days 
    • Irondale Farmers Market 
    • Market at Pepper Place 
    • Monroeville Market Days Farmers Market 
    • Northport Farmers Market 
    • Prattville/Autauga Farmers Market 
    • The Farmers Market at Brock’s Gap 
    • The Farmers Market at Killen Park 
    • Town of Berlin Farmers Market 
    • Tuscaloosa River Market 
    • Village of Providence Farmers Market 

    Sweet Grown Alabama exists to connect farmers and families. Consumers can search for locally grown products at SweetGrownAlabama.org, or by looking for the Sweet Grown Alabama logo when shopping.
