The Rochester Farm Connection is a non-profit Yahoo Group (list serve) connecting Rochester area consumers with local/sustainable farmers.

Members receive summaries of local food sources when joining. Thereafter, they can expect to receive anywhere from 3 emails per week to 5 emails per day, containing news from area farms, info on food related events, and articles that support the local/sustainable food movement. Members can use "digest mode" to condense notes into one daily email. Currently the group has over 300 members, more than 30 are farmers.¹

Some of the promoted products include:

• organic vegetables,
  

• Community Supported Agriculture (CSA's),
  

• organic or low-spray fruits,
  

• pasture-based meats/eggs/dairy,
  

• raw milk and cheese,
  

• honey,
  

• maple syrup,
  

• buying clubs for bulk & national-brand organic staples.
