Local Harvest Local Food Locator

What a great online widget! When you visitLocalharvest.org you simply enter your zip code and voila, a list of products from farms near you. The have all sorts of foods that you can either order for delivery, pick up at the farm or they'll ship it to you with less footprint than the shipping to Safeway's distribution center, then to your local Safeway branch. Less refrigerated trucks, less of all the bad stuff, and you can support small growers in the process. Check it out, you may learn something about your neighbors. I guess near my home, there's tones of honey makers, almonds, beans, sausages and Emu burgers!!
