Good Food Finder currently tracks 141 farms, 69 farmers markets , 65 community gardens, 27 Community Supported Agriculture operations, and 18 community kitchens. It has details on 110 school gardens. Based on those numbers, access to locally-produced foods isn’t just a trend. It is a substantive movement.
