For locavores: Farms deliver fresh food directly to the city

The concept behind farm-to-city delivery services, which include Graze, Farmers to You, and South Shore Organics, is simple: customers order online, and trucks or vans bring the food once a week. Winter produce is limited to what’s available in greenhouses and cold storage, but spring will soon bring herbs, asparagus, and hardy greens. Staples like milk, cheeses, and meats can be ordered year-round.
