Santa Barbara Green Cuisine is an organization whose goal is to encourage communities to eat locally and organically because choosing to eat locally and organically not only improves the quality of the produce, but it also gives back to the local economy and promotes global sustainability.

Bumper Sticker Campaign!

In hopes of raising awareness of the importance of local and organic foods/produce, Santa Barbara Green Cuisine has started a bumper sticker campaign! After the Holiday Season, please look around your local farmers markets for Santa Barbara Green Cuisine volunteers that will be handing out free bumper stickers.
We hope that spreading the word about us will lead more and more people to this site, and our developing .org website.
Please join us in our mission to raise awareness.
If you live outside of the Santa Barbara Community, please contact us at sbgreencuisine@gmail.com, and we will gladly mail you a bumper sticker!
Thank you for your continued support!
