About Us
LocalHarvest connects people looking for good food with the farmers who produce it.
Buying local is about enjoying real food, grown yourself or purchased from people you trust. It's about developing strong local economies and producing food on a human scale. It's about eating seasonally, practicing the art of cooking, and sitting down to enjoy meals together. It requires ample local and regional producers, processors, and distributors. As we see it, the goal of the local food movement is to create thriving community-based food systems that will make high quality local food available to everyone.
To that end, LocalHarvest makes millions of introductions a year. Hear what some of our members have to say about us.
We make it easy to find good food.
Our Services
The LocalHarvest National Directory
Our directory lists over 40,000 family farms and farmers markets, along with restaurants and grocery stores that feature local food. We call it a 'grassroots' directory because each member creates and maintains their own listing. To create a listing for your farm, click here.
Every year, over 7 million people search our directory to find local food, farm events, and family farmer-grown specialty products. LocalHarvest offers several related services:
- Keep Me Posted: a weekly email featuring customized local food and farm events
- Our online catalog of CSA subscriptions and other products offered by CSAware vendors.
