Look for the Label - Taste the Difference!
Buy Fresh Buy Local (BFBL) is a national program that connects consumers to fresh, locally-grown foods. The Greater Lehigh Valley chapter of BFBL (BFBL-GLV) is helping residents of Berks, Lehigh, and Northampton Counties find, choose, and appreciate great locally-grown foods, while supporting the farmers and lands that produce them. Our goal at BFBL-GLV is to build the Greater Lehigh Valley local food economy. We are achieving this by providing marketing support for our farmers and local food providers, while also educating consumers about the many good reasons to choose locally-grown foods through speaking engagements, farm-to-school programs, and food events to let people taste how good locally-grown food really is.
Our Local Foods Directory and monthly e-newsletters make it easier for consumers to find seasonal foods. BFBL-GLV is a program of the Nurture Nature Center, a 501(c)(3) organization. BFBL chapters across Pennsylvania are coordinated by the Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture (PASA), on behalf of our national partner, Food Routes Network.
