Local Produce Finder
Use this tool in your hunt for locally grown fruits and vegetables. Enter your info and the product you are looking for.

This tool will get some false hits as well (Bananas in Boston? It's because farms put recipes on their sites). As a second pass, Google for something like "site:communityfarms.org kale" to see in what context a specific farm mentioned the vegetable or fruit.
