The 6th edition of the Buy Local! Buy Fresh! Chatham-Kent map and website is now available. Since the first edition of the Buy Local! Buy Fresh! map was printed in 2007 interests from both consumers and producers has grown. The interest in farm fresh and locally grown products has driven the demand to update the Chatham-Kent map and website. Consumers want to know where their products are coming from and how they are produced.
Consumers like the convenience of one map to showcase the abundant variety of products available in our area. Buying local has lasting economic value for the region.
As an initiative of the Kent Federation of Agriculture, the website and the production of the Buy Local! Buy Fresh! Chatham-Kent map are designed to introduce and guide the public to the agricultural-related businesses in Chatham-Kent. From produce to meat to honey, we work to connect consumers to the best local producers in our area for a true farm-to-table experience.
