We live at a time that allows us to purchase most fruits and vegetables all year long. Through the use of mass-transportation, chemicals, and warehouses, produce grown half way around the world is often picked green, shipped and ripened in warehouses under questionable conditions. Because of the environmental and nutritious impact of this food system, some have made a conscious decisions to select only locally grown produce. When standing on the produce isle of our local market how are we assured that our desired choice is in season and grown locally? By consulting the Locavore iPhone app. It is a very sharp looking app with useful features such as listings of local markets, links to recipes on Wikipedia and Epicurius.com, and many more.
