Ed: I continue thinking that Rebecca at Google Earth Outreach (and a friend of ours at Bioneers) can assist with the goal of making it easier to find local Farmers Markets online via Google Maps -- Rebecca, think about a quick link for use w/ smartphones, dedicated mapping of Farmers Markets close by to wherever someone is, in the US, and/or Canada, and everywhere !

Here is what your editor/siterunner posted to Google and Rebecca Moore on Earth Day -- Apr 22, 2013... Think about it Rebecca, Farmers Markets mapping !

>Water is the new gold, so goes Google today in its doodle... And the LA Times offers earthy tips incl a local Farmers Markets map that's an idea for Google too... G people r u listening? Plz consider doing Farmers Markets Google Maps for every local community! Steven Schmidt to Google Outreach Director Rebecca Moore, what do u think?

Request to Rebecca Moore on Earth Day
