North Dakota Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring recently announced the availability of a new interactive web-based map to help consumers more easily find local foods in North Dakota. The map contains layers for farmers markets, on-farm sales, roadside stands, CSAs, u-picks, vineyards, produce donation sites and more.
“The new local foods map helps people find food grown, raised, harvested and made in North Dakota,” said Goehring. “The map is a great tool to connect with and support local growers and producers.”
