Background:                         Now beginning its sixth season, the
"Made in Oklahoma" Farmers Market at the Oklahoma State Department of Health
is part of the agency's effort to improve the health of its employees and
the public by providing opportunities to purchase fresh fruits and
vegetables from local growers. Oklahomans eat fewer fruits and vegetables
than any other state. This year, organizers are planning cooking
demonstrations and presentations on safe food preparation, and early
shoppers will get a free mesh shopping bag. This Farmers Market is open to
employees at the state health department's central office, as well as
employees within the nearby OU Health Sciences Center, and the public.
