King County launches interactive Local Food Finder map

In addition to an interactive map that details open restaurants around Puget Sound, King County Executive Dow Constantine launched an online map that identifies convenient ways customers can get fresh produce, berries, flowers, cheese, and more from local farms.

The interactive map allows users to get fresh goods delivered to their doorstep, to a nearby pickup location, or picked up directly at the farm.

“We are making it easier than ever to get fresh food and flowers delivered directly from local farms or arrange for convenient pickup right at the farm,” said Executive Constantine in a news release Monday.

The new food map allows customers to view farms in which they can purchase vegetables, fruits, berries, milk, cheese, meat, seafood, eggs, grains, flowers, honey, jams, jellies, soap, body care, and candles from local producers.

According to Executive Constantine, “Farm King County designed the website to make it easy for farmers to update food and product availability, new drop sites, and pick-up locations.”

Those interested in adding their farm to the King County Local Food Finder can do so by filling out a short form online.
