For those of you in central Iowa,
The Iowa Food Cooperative is located in Merle Hay Mall in the Des Moines

Check it out at www.iowafood.org .
Anyone may join and there is a one-time $50 membership fee plus an annual

2009 guide to locally grown meats, fruits, vegetables now available
CEDAR FALLS, Iowa -- The 2009 Buy Fresh Buy Local Food Directory is now
available from Northern Iowa Food & Farm Partnership (NIFFP) at the

The directory features information about where to purchase locally grown
meats, fruits and vegetables in Black Hawk and neighboring Iowa counties. It
also lists grocers, restaurants and institutions that buy local foods.
"New additions to the directory this year include a chart that shows the
best times to buy Iowa fruits and vegetables, information on how to buy
locally grown meat, and a list of 2009 local food events," says Andrea
Geary, NIFFP coordinator.
To receive a copy of the new guide, contact Geary at [log in to unmask] or
