Hello!

You've landed in the archive of the Cambrian House community. We've kept some pages here for posterity but the community is no longer active. Now we market the technology that made our early crowdsourcing a success.

Can we help you get to Cambrian House the company? – Come on over.

Are you seeking crowdsourcing technology? – Check out Chaordix by Cambrian House.

Thanks for dropping by

The Idea

Enter your location and find the closest places to purchase food grown in your area. Grow food locally, or know of such a place? add your farm stand or green shop to the database.

I thought of this idea when I was...

Shopping at a gigantic mega grocery super store.

would be a great idea, but sadly I can see it getting coverage maybe in the US, but then Australia getting poor coverage to the point where it becomes useless... unless it has makreting to local business' everywhere it won't work :(

I don't think it matters if it's not a hit worldwide. I know for a fact that here in California many people make an effort to buy organic, chemical-free food, buying from specific stores or even driving to the next county to shop at open-air markets where farmers go to sell their crops. A site like this would give these people an easier way of finding such venues.
