Great to see this new resource. As a professional cook and advocate for family farms, I'm often up on my soapbox preaching "Eat Seasonal, Buy Local, Be Sustainable". But it takes forethought, work and creativity for consumers to accomplish those goals. The average consumer doesn't think twice about where those bananas, grapes or asparagus were grown. Nor do they think about the affect shopping out of season has on local family farms and even on local business. I'll put this link on my website so more folks are aware of "Simple Steps". Thanks.
