Description

Currently, if you want to find information about local farmer’s markets there are only a couple blogs which provide limited information about these markets.

Since these blog postings are static by nature we recognized that consumers are not able to easily access accurate information about what each market offers.

We felt that this was a problem, who doesn’t want to have easy access to fresh, local food!

Based on this, we created a platform which allows farmers to create a profile that contains current information about the products they carry and the markets where they will be selling. On the user side, an individual can keep track of their favorite markets & farmers.
