Alabamians who want to support local farmers and buy locally grown products can now easily find what they’re looking for thanks to the launch of Sweet Grown Alabama’s online searchable database.

Sweet success was celebrated today at the Capitol with a special farmers market and Gov. Kay Ivey issuing a proclamation that declared July 22, 2020, as Sweet Grown Alabama Day.

“Alabama’s farmers have a significant impact on our great state with over 580,000 Alabamians working in agriculture and related industries,” Ivey said. “Connecting with local farmers through Sweet Grown Alabama is a great opportunity to show your support for our neighbors and enjoy the wonderful products grown right here at home!”
