History

At a fall 2007 gathering at Imago Earth Center, a group of individuals concerned about the environment met to discuss local food resources. Several of these eaters of local foods saw the need for an all inclusive directory of resources. This desire brought community members, farmers and staff from local non-profits together to produce the 2008 Eat Local guide. A second edition was completed in the spring of 2009.  And now we’re in our 16th year. Imago, a nonprofit, mentors and financially houses the initiative.
