Boston Localvores/Eat Local, Boston is put together by a 100-percent volunteer effort. (Read more about who we are.) It’s a free resource that exists because of the collective contribution of its users, volunteers and organizers. We care about three things very much: Local agricultureLocal economiesLocal eaters We think having a connection to your food — which means having a connection to where it comes from — is good for people, farmers and the local businesses that facilitate those connections.

That said, we don’t encourage you to consume everything from local sources. Do whatever you want with the material here. The story behind the site This site was conceived of in 2007 after we, Darry Madden and Kristi Ceccarossi, moved to Boston from Brattleboro, Vt. We didn’t really want to have to negotiate the little rules we’d made for what we eat (e.g. no meat unless we know where it comes from), and so we set out, here in Boston, to find sources of local, sustainable food in the area.
