Connect, Participate & Create

The Locals is a community organization based in Conway, Arkansas. We are dedicated to supporting local projects and producers to make Conway a more unique and vibrant place to live. We work with local farmers, artists, musicians, makers, and any others who want to see an idea become reality by engaging and collaborating with others in the community.

As a 501 c3 nonprofit, we help new projects by providing the necessary infrastructure to get ideas off the ground. Projects we have supported include:

-The Urban Farm Project, an educational community garden.
-The Food Recovery Program, partnering with grocery stores to reroute perfectly good produce from the landfill to hungry bellies.
-The Locals Food Hub, a cold storage solution to aggregate local food for our community.
-The Locals Community Grant program, awarding grants to local school gardens, local farmers, and local artists to fund projects that benefit the community.
