Details:

Our team realized that government data related to farmer markets where severely out of date. To update public documentation, the government had to reach out to each market individually to confirm the information for the season. Smaller markets that didn't have the man power or a the resources would suffer from being unable to advertise outside of their communities. The solution to these issues come in the form of an app.

City Fresh is an app made to unify data related to farmer's markets. We do this by allowing the community of users to create, modify and comment on markets that they frequently use. The community driven app aims to alleviate the unneeded overhead of managing websites by the smaller markets, while allowing larger markets be able to update themselves.

For the general user of City Fresh, they have access to maps of farmer markets, detailed information about markets location and times, and also search functionality to narrow down the list of markets. The current version of the app only includes markets in the New York City area, but with the help of our users, we hope to expand the list of markets to include cities all over the United States.

● App is free. ● The user will need to grant app permission to access their current location for the app to display current location. ● Users preferences will be stored locally on a user’s device so no login form is required. ● The user will be provided with a “report” option to block offensive content and report it to app administrators.
