Tree Planting Map. The need to replant our region's aging/dying tree stock (the number/volume of trees taken down far exceeds those replanted) especially in light of future severe weather and searing heat, and the challenge to match trees to locations where they can/should be planted. Not just on public property but on private property too. It would be great to have an online way for ordinary citizens to register a location where they would like to receive a tree planting, either on their own property or on city or state-owned property.

Gleaning Database. A Gleaning Database that allows people access to fresh, local food that would otherwise go to waste, like a Freecycle for Food. [Note: this seems like this could be related to the “Local Ingredient Registry” idea above, too!] Local Ingredient Registry / Delivery. A large survey of Northampton restaurants revealed that most of them would like to use more locally grown ingredients. However, a major roadblock is needing to get information in a timely way that indicates what ingredients will be available each week from which farms. Also, having a reliable way to have produce delivered from a variety of farms would astronomically increase the ease of working local ingredients into the menus.
