Local Harvest (LocalHarvest.org)

Here's a website to find locally grown, organic food. Just type in your zip code and start searching for farms, farmers' markets, restaurants, grocery co-ops, and more.

According to the website, "LocalHarvest is America's #1 organic and local food website. We maintain a definitive and reliable "living" public nationwide directory of small farms, farmers markets, and other local food sources. Our search engine helps people find products from family farms, local sources of sustainably grown food, and encourages them to establish direct contact with small farms in their local area. Our online store helps small farms develop markets for some of their products beyond their local area."

If you are interested in finding good, fresh food from a locally grown source, this is the place to start. There's nothing like taking a trip to a local farm on a Saturday afternoon to pick berries or just pick up some fresh corn, citrus, and more. The adventure can begin at Local Harvest.

The website is located at: http://www.localharvest.org/
