Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

  1. Q. If I own a farm and need to correct information on my listing, how do I do that?
    A. If it is minor changes (a phone number, adding a website address, delete something, just use the form above.  For numerous or more complex changes or to re-write your listing, use the add-my-farm form!  
  2. Q. If I am a customer, visitor or friend/neighbor of the farm or event and want to make a correction, how do I do that?
    A. Just use the form above!.
  3. Q. Can you tell me where to find organic ________?
    A. The information about each farm that I found from government agriculture sources didn't include organic status.  I have requested it from the farms, but they are slow in responding.  As they reply I update their listings.  If it doesn't say "organic", it is safe to presume that it isn't.  For 2006, I am identifying organic farms with a green "ORGANIC", so they will stand out.  And in the improved search engine (see question 2) I will enable a "include only organic farms" option, too!.
  4. Q. How long does it take for the changes to appear?
    A. Obviously, I need to verify that the changes are correct, which means verifying that the person making the changes really is the representative of the farm, or that a visitor or customer's changes are correct (You would believe how many times I get emails saying "this farm is closed" because the customer got lost driving and ended up in a neighboring subdivision. I actually make 99% of changes within 24 hours. I'm trying to keep this free for everyone. I don't charge either farmers or consumers (or anyone else). In order to keep it free, I do 100% of all the work myself, in my "spare" time, so it takes me a bit longer (the baby needs some time, too! :).  Keeping this resource free for all has been a priority of mine, along with ease of use and accuracy of the information!

Keep the suggestions coming!  If people want it, I'll do it!
