Here are a few papers that we have written about local foods systems,
technology use, and farmers.
Butler, B. S., Ridings, C., & Pike, J. C. (2009). Growing local food
systems: information technology use and impacts in geographically-embedded
markets. *ICIS 2009 Proceedings*, 92.
Butler, B., Travis, D., Ridings, C., & Zacharia, Z. (2014). Community or
Market?: The Implications of Alternative Institutional Logics for IT Use in
Community Supported Agriculture Programs (CSAs). (
