New Chicago Business Seeks Backyard Gardeners and Local Foodies

Every Last Morsel -- a website that you can think of as an online farmers market, but for backyard and windowsill gardeners -- is launching in Chicago soon. They're inviting beta testers onboard to be the first people ever to use a hyper-local food marketplace.

Here’s what they’re looking for:

  • Bloggers: Writers willing to repost some of their food or garden related content or write something new
  • Foodies: Lovers of local food to write posts (i.e. restaurant reviews, gardening tips, recipes, etc.)
  • Buyers: Locals who want to be one of the first people ever to shop for groceries from their neighbors backyard
  • Sellers: Gardeners and small farmers who want to use our record-keeping tools and sell their bumper crop
  • Detectives: People who are really really good at looking for bugs — the computer kind — if there are any

Qualifications:

  • Must be over 18 years of age
  • Must live in Chicago, IL or the surrounding area
  • Must be willing to devote at least 30 minutes per week on our site
  • Must be willing to send us feedback and suggestions

How to apply:

  • It’s simple. Send an email to info@everylastmorsel.com with your full name, address (because  you might just get a thank-you gift), and a brief explanation of how you’d like to help. Feel free to provide any links to your business, blog, or anything else relevant.
On the journey to a better food system, community support is critical.
