Our campaign encourages people to consciously support Oakland Grown businesses and artists — those unique locally-owned businesses and artists that have their roots in Oakland. Shopping Oakland Grown not only helps keep the character of Oakland, but also helps strengthen our economy, and preserve our environment.
Oakland Grown has already built a buzz and we hope to direct thousands of individuals both merchants and consumers to the ShopOakland.com website to this local shopping campaign.
If you have an Oakland based business please register for a FREE listing at ShopOakland.com.

The Shop Oakland Campaign is the product of a collaboration between the City of Oakland and the Oakland Merchants Leadership Forum (OMLF).
