As the whole 'Eat Local Challenge' and '100 mile diet' grows in popularity, so too are small towns, food organizations and farmers' use of digital marketing.

Why the use of online?
1. Its cheap and/or free
2. You can connect with people from the comfort of your farm
3. There are already communities to tap into

Who/What are some of my favourite organizations making good use of online?

Niagara Culinary Trail
Accommodations, farms, cafes...you name it.  This site gives you great information on getting local goods.

Savour Durham
I will be the first to admit that Ajax, Pickering or Uxbridge are not the first towns to come to mind when I think of yummy food.  But the Savour Durham program gives local restaurants a chance to connect with farmers and feature local food on their menu's.  YUM!

Ontario Culinary Tourism Alliance
