Oklahoma Originals: Roxy's Ice Cream

If this is your first time to see an Oklahoma Originals post, let me fill you in on what it is! For the past couple months, I take a day to pass on some REALLY awesome videos that Keep It Local OK has put together about some local businesses here. Here in OK, we L O V E our local businesses. My hope is that you'll see these videos, and if you're a local: you'll either come across a new place that you've never been to, or you'll fall even more in love with a place that you've already known about by getting to know the owners and their hearts a little more. I love this series, you guys. I LOVE IT. We have so many talented folks in this city with such huge hearts!

This week I'm highlighting Roxy's! An ice cream food truck made with fresh ingredients, and OH MY GOODNESS. So delicious.



I hear that Roxy's is opening a brick and mortar in the Plaza District! Who's excited for that? This girl.

Oklahoma Originals : Plenty Mercantile

Hi brave readers! Last month I posted a little video by Keep It Local, introducing a local coffee roaster and shop. I'm so loving this series Keep it Local has started, titled "Oklahoma Originals", that I decided to pass along the goodness once a month on Little Brave! If you're a local, I hope you find a new place to love, or get to know a place you already love a little better! If you're not a local- then this is just to brag about how awesome our local businesses are, and maybe if you're in town sometime you can visit a few!

Today I'm passing along Plenty Mercantile. Plenty is one of my FAVORITE places to shop for goodies to make my home a little prettier. Think: a rustic, and local anthropologie, in the middle of our historic automobile alley. You've got to visit if you haven't yet. Check out the video to learn more and get a little glimpse of the whimsy inside of Plenty. <3

Oklahoma Originals : Hoboken Coffee

If you've lived in or near any given city in the state of Oklahoma, it's probably pretty likely that you've heard of our Keep it Local program. If you haven't heard of it, either you've been living under a rock and totally mission out, OR you don't live in the state of Oklahoma- let me explain the program to you!

Keep it Local is a card program that supports participating local businesses. (and boy, do we LOVE our local businesses) For a mere $10 you can purchase a Keep It Local card. Tristan and I have had one for at least 3 years.. maybe 4? I can't recall. They expire at the end of every calendar year, so they always end up as the perfect stocking stuffer. 

When you present your keep it local card to any of the participating businesses- you receive a discount. Maybe it's 10% off your purchase, 15%, a free cup of coffee, etc. just for supporting local businesses. By choosing to support local businesses, you not only get a great personal service and value, you also help strengthen our local community and economy.

Keep It Local has started doing a video series titled "Oklahoma Originals" which highlights some of our participating local businesses! I really have no personal ties to this program or video series, other than most of them are people I have met, know well, or even consider friends because of supporting their businesses. I'm so lucky to be part of this community, even as a consumer alone. To have so many options for quality product from local businesses. I LOVE IT!

I'd like to start relaying a video per week of these great businesses and the people behind them, so if you do live in OKlahoma, maybe you'll see somewhere new you'd like to visit, or get some history behind an already favorite spot of yours. IF you don't live in OKlahoma, I'd still like to share the hearts behind our community with you and what a blessing these people are to us. 

To start us off, Meet Trey & Mallory of Hoboken Coffee. A true treasure in the heart of Guthrie, Oklahoma.
