The Local Food Switchboard beta site is LIVE!

The Local Food Switchboard is a food supply chain coordination platform that connects Maine's food system to buy and sell local foods more easily. It streamlines and verifies procurement data and logistics while providing tailored support. By shifting from competition to coordination, the platform builds reliable market connections, and a more equitable, resilient, and relationship-based food system.

Businesses and organizations across Maine’s food system are invited to sign up and contribute their information to help grow the database. By joining, users can start using Live Listings to share details about their products, services, and more. With Live Listings, users can exchange time-sensitive information about needs and offerings for product, supplies, logistical support, storage space, etc.; think classifieds or Facebook Marketplace, but for the food system! As a “beta” platform, it will continue to evolve with user input and feedback.

HERE'S WHAT TO DO:
1. Go to localfoodswitchboard.org
2. Sign up for an account.
3. Create a profile for your business or organization A PROFILE
4. While awaiting your profile’s approval, you can create live listings (they’ll go public once your profile is approved) and explore the switchboard.
5. Spread the word! Help populate the switchboard
