Local Food Nodes - New Platform for Relocalization Economics
Channel: Marcin Jakubowski
Date: 14/07/2017

Powerful, new, open source platform for connecting food producers to buyers in local economies. Can this scale to wide impact on the food system, and gobble up Amazon Fresh? That may or may not be wishful thinking - but at least here we are reducing barriers to exchange on the local level.  A mix of a CSA, Farmer's Market, and Delivery system are here in one. 

It would be interesting to apply this platform to other goods, and with its mapping database, this may be a marketing solution to OSE's Extreme Manufacturing Workshops. As a start, it would be interesting to gather the local producers from sweet Maysville, Missouri - and experiment with the social impact of this platform.
