Support Local Food & Farming

As a consumer, one of the easiest ways to support your local farmers is through purchasing their products. In our site you can find farmers in your area by logging in or you can visit other sites such as LocalHarvest.org.

Local farmers sell their products at farm stands, specialty stores, farmers markets and other venues. Additionally, more and more restaurants are using local farmer's products, so be sure to express your support of this when eating at these venues.

Other ways you can support local farmers are discussed on our Action Packet page and Ways to Support Local Farmers Packet page.

FLORIDA FARMLINK WAS DEVELOPED BY FLORIDA WEST COAST RC&D IN RESPONSE TO THE NEED FOR NETWORKING WITHIN THE LOCAL FOOD SYSTEM. THE SITE IS DESIGNED TO BE A TOOL FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES AND CONSUMERS TO CONNECT AND GROW AND EAT MORE LOCAL FOOD. THIS ALSO STRENGTHENS THE AREA ECONOMY THROUGH FOOD-RELATED COMMERCE.
