Know the food in season near you.

Eating local food when it’s in season is an increasingly popular goal amongst people who are interested in eating the tastiest, healthiest food while also being good to the environment. Knowing what’s available in your area at a given time of year is often difficult to determine, so we’ve taken on the task of collecting data from a variety of sources and presenting it all in the most understandable of ways. The Locavore iPhone app will come in handy next time you’re at the market and want to know what’s actually being grown near you, and what is most likely to taste the best right now.

Whether you’re just trying to become more aware of what’s in season around you, or you are fully committed to eating only locally grown food, this app will help you know what your options are.


Features:

1 - Automatically detects which state you’re in (currently only covers the US)

2 - Food that’s in season near you

3 - Food that’s coming in season near you soon

4 - Farmers’ markets near you

5 - Browse all 234 fruits and vegetables to see where it is currently growing

6 - Links to Wikipedia articles and Epicurious recipes from each food detail page

Built with the help of:

* Natural Resources Defense Council for food availability

* LocalHarvest.org for farmers’ markets data

* Tattfoo for colors

* Designed by Matt Hickey

* Integrated with Get Satisfaction Remote for in-app feedback, ideas, and bug tracking
