VeggieTrader.com is a new online startup dedicated to the free spread of home grown produce. The idea is to trade what excess produce you may have for the produce that you want. According to the site, ”
We believe a bonanza of fruits, vegetables, fresh herbs and more are found right in your own backyard—and your neighbors’ yard too.
It’s local, affordable and sustainable, but we’ve noticed a lot of it goes to waste. You plant too many tomatoes, or your plum tree has a bumper crop, most of which is enjoyed by the sidewalk and the grass…
So we’ve launched Veggie Trader – a free resource for bringing good food and good people together.
Wish you could turn your excess plums into lemons, or maybe even a little cash? Use this site to find neighbors to swap with or sell your excess produce to. Or if you specialize in growing tomatoes, find neighbors who specialize in other produce and form networks to share in the variety. Even if you don’t have a garden, Veggie Trader is your place for finding local food near you.
