Locavore 2.0: The Honest Guide to Farmer's Market Delivery Services

Carnivores eat meat, herbivores eat plants, qualitarians eat unprocessed whole foods and locavores eat…anything that’s fresh and available within one day’s travel of where they live! Naturally ripened to perfection and likely less polluted with pesticides, you’ll taste the benefits of eating safer, in season and in proximity with every bite you take. Plus, it’s healthier for your community: less transportation means less environmental pollution & impact.  You’ll also support the local, small-scale farming community through sustainable eating that helps feeds the growth of your local economy, too.

Here's the good news: modern technology brings the fruits, vegetables, meats, and grains of local farmers’ markets right to your kitchen! We’ve got the united states of online delivery services to help you upgrade to locavore 2.0 wherever you are:
