Why shop on JDLF?
We are proud to offer you LOCAL food. All our producers live in or close to Jo Daviess County. This means you are getting FRESH food, rich in nutrients and tasting great, AND you are reducing your carbon footprint while supporting our local economy! We work hard to bring you high-quality products. Every time you buy from JDLF, you are voting for a local food system. This may seem like a small thing, but it can add up to have a big impact. The more we can commit to buying local food, the closer we come to creating a strong local food system that is better for the environment, the economy, and our health.
