Other Ways to Get Involved or Support

Be a Conscious Consumer
Make a conscious choice to shift more of your spending to locally-owned, independent businesses. Take a close look at where your hard-earned income goes every month. How much of your spending stays here at home, and how much of it is siphoned away - and do the companies that you're supporting in turn support your values and ideals? If you have a good local alternative, try to shift your spending there when you can. If there are things you would prefer to buy from a local independent business, but don't know where to find it, let us know! Or, suggest the items with an independent retailer. If there is demand, they'll want to meet it.

Donate
Thank you! Oakland Grown accepts donations in any amount from any individuals or businesses. But, we do not accept donations on behalf of corporations that do not meet our membership requirements.
