The Local Beet

May 15, 2009 by Antonio Garcia

Finding Chicago's farmer's markets just got easier thanks to The Local Beet. Just type in your zip code and the date you plan to go shopping and Local Beet's Market Locator shows what's good in your 'hood. Although some of the site still feels like it's in beta (the Local Bookshelf is empty), Local Beet offers a blog, special features and forums for folks "dedicated to a practical approach to local eating."

So where's your favorite spot for fruits + veggies? Got any tips for eating good locally?

If you are in the area, you can drop off at our studio — otherwise, please send them yourself. We are closed on Monday for MLK, but anytime on Tuesday would be great. If you think you won’t be able to get them here on Tuesday, then please send them to the Miami address. Thanks so much!
