OUT:   McDonalds, Coors, Pot Pies, Venture Capitalists IN:   Chipolte, Craft Beer, Chinese Take-Out, Farmers. Agrilicious.com claims it is SURGING with the First-of-its-Kind National Destination For All Things Local Food - Over the last 90 days - Added 135,000 farms, food hubs, farmers markets and restaurants. Over the last 30 days - Mainstream consumer traffic has spiked from 5,000 page views per day to 30,000 page views per day (all organic). In a recent study by Sullivan Higdon & Sink’s FoodThink: 70% of consumers would like to know more about where food actually comes from; 79% would like to Buy More Local Food.

Here is Duane Dahl, Co-Founder: “What we have found is that our team is very interested in the food movement and we were very disappointed with how it was represented online and the availability of information and product online so after a lot of research and spending a lot of time with everybody from farmers to advocates to you name it, we decided to build Agrilicious.com. The main thought is connecting both the consumer with the farmer but at the same time build out tools to allow the farmer to work with everyone from the local restauranteur to you name it. The interesting thing for us as we got into this was that everyone we talked to had a connection to local and organic. But it still felt like a niche category.
