Local Harvest

If you’re looking for locally-grown organic food, check out www.localharvest.org. You can enter your zip code, and the site will give you a listing of farmers’ markets, family farms and other sources of sustainably grown food in your area.

It was through this site that I discovered Eating with the Seasons, the CSA program we’re trying.

The Local Harvest site was mentioned by Michael Pollan, in In Defense of Food, a book I highly recommend.

You should also check out a movie called the Real Dirt About Farmer John. Great film about sustainable local organic farming that I ran across through a bizarre series of events. Highly recommended.
