Buy Fresh Buy Local® Nebraska is dedicated to:

  • Keeping the food chain shorter, transparent, and sustainable
  • Educating on the social, environmental, and economic benefits of eating locally
  • Improving wellness and quality of life by promoting healthy, in-season eating
  • Cultivating a future for Nebraska’s family farms by expanding the market for locally produced foods
Buy Fresh Buy Local® Nebraska (BFBLN) connects consumers to local food through partnerships with producers engaged in direct sales, farmers' markets, on-farm stands, wholesale markets, and local food retailers, such as grocers, restaurants, and institutions. Through initiatives like Local Food Showcases, Nebraska Farm to School, Farmer’s Market Promotion Program, and Snap Education, BFBLN celebrates the abundance and diversity of local foods, helping to reconnect citizens with their land, farms, communities, and healthy eating.
