More and more people are interested in eating food grown close to home, and for Washington state residents, there’s a map for that: the online Washington Food & Farm Finder.

Maressa Valliant, Eat Local First Director with Sustainable Connections, joins Dillon to announce the global agritourism award that the Washington Food & Farm Finder received, and share some of the project’s history.
