Thanks so much for this link!! I have been trying to find a website that does exactly this. Eating locally and in season can be difficult outside of the farmer's market. Even in our farmer's market, some folks are trucking in things from several states away. I like that it shows what is fresh in neighboring states. PS. Have you read Barbara Kingsolver's recent book: Animal, Vegetable, Miracle? It details her family's experiences eating only locally derived foods.
