This database will allow us to continually update listings and also add new ones. It is a companion piece to the <em>2024 Wyoming Specialty Crop Directory<\/em>, which is available for free download at <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/wyo-specialty-crop-directory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/wyo-specialty-crop-directory<\/a>.<\/p><p>With funds from WDA\u2019s Specialty Crop Block Grant Program through the USDA, we created volume 2 of the directory along with this database. These resources aim to connect Wyoming residents and visitors with a variety of edible specialty crops. This includes fresh vegetables and fruits, culinary herbs and spices, and honey. Additionally, we feature a wide variety of homemade goods containing specialty crops.<\/p><p>The directory and database bring new life to the saying \u201cShop Local,\u201d as both list hundreds of Wyoming producers\u2014big and small\u2014who sell their products at local businesses, outdoor and indoor farmers\u2019 markets, co-ops, roadside stands, and other venues.<\/p><p>If you haven\u2019t already, please grab hold of the growing local food movement across Wyoming!
