"Farmer Friend" Locavore Restaurants
We asked farmers which restaurants buy from them consistently and are committed to supporting local producers. Check out the listings online or print the pdf. If you know a restaurant that should be here, send this link to their farmer-suppliers so they can be added.
Also check out a list of online resources about sustainable agriculture and sources for sustainably grown food, as well as our online bookstore from Chelsea Green Publishing!
