ACORN joins COG's online price tracking tool!
The
price information ACORN volunteers tracked at farmers' markets across
the Maritimes this season has now been integrated into an expanded
version of Canadian Organic Growers' online tool www.OrganicPriceTracker.ca, making price comparisons across regions easier. We're always looking for more price information, so please contact tegan@acornorganic.org if you're interested in contributing to the project!
