What other food and agriculture organizations are you involved with?
Shared Harvest CT is a website that focuses on locally produced foods in a buy/sell/trade/barter/donate platform!

Shared Harvest CT will allow consumers to find locally produced food in another (NON-farm market) venue, provide producers with a separate sales venue, and allow for the donation of food to those in need. Shared Harvest CT is a state-wide food distribution system allowing farmers, producers, and consumers to connect directly over the internet - in ONE interactive space and platform.

Shared Harvest CT is an online farmer's market and food-bank rolled into one. Food that might potentially go to waste can also be listed for donation to participating charities and food banks.

Shared Harvest CT works like an INSTANT ONLINE SELLING classified ad section and is available for free to all producers, farmers, and consumers.
