The Farmigo System enables CSA members to easily sign-up and pay online for shares as well as an easy way for farms to offer flexible share options.  There is also a web store where farms can choose to sell excess items or optional items to be delivered with the share.  In addition to member sign-ups and management, the system also helps farms manage the logistics associated with harvesting, packing and delivering shares. 

Check out this post in Civil Eats about Farmigo and read what farms are saying about Farmigo. 

I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such a talented, experienced and dedicated team.  Farmigo is an innovative and valuable tool for Farms and CSA members.  I am excited about the development and adoption of web technology for farms and Farm Direct consumers that facilitates transactions and interactions in a way that helps farms and enhances the purchasing experience.

Legitify has been designing and producing websites since 2002.  Legitify Studio has been in development since February 2007 with the first sites launching in May 2007.  As a hosted application, it will continue to improve, evolve and prove to be the intuitive website publishing platform for Creative Professionals and Businesses. 

We offer affordable packages, payment options and professional service for small businesses.  We also offer strategic, collaborative and customized services for Agencies, Businesses, and our new "top secret" Studio Partner Network.

It is not meant to be a true Industry Index, Business Category Index, and I'm sure we will change it soon.  It is simply easier to look at then the general list. 

We'll keep adding ways to learn about sites in Studio and Studio Features.  A new website dedicated to Legitify Studio will be launching at the end of September.  Stay tuned.

Check out some Studio empowered websites in the following Categories:

Architecture, Landscape Design and Real Estate

Legitify worked closely with CarShare Vermont Executive Director Annie Bourdon to produce a site that will help the organization launch the new car share service in Vermont. Annie felt Legitify Studio was the perfect platform to manage all content on the CarShare Vermont website.

Place Creative Company provided branding and logo development. They participated in our interface design process as Legitify created an interface that met the organization's goals and was an extension of the CarShare Vermont brand.

Put simply, car charing is when a group of people have access to a pool of cars that they share.

Here is what Annie has to say:

"When we began shopping around for a web design firm Legitify came highly recommended, and for very good reason. Mike, Margo, and Ben are not only incredibly savvy at what they do and a lot of fun to work with, but they're also personally invested in their projects. It really mattered to me and to CarShare Vermont that we selected a firm that would get behind our mission and help us share it in the most meaningful way possible. Legitify achieved that, and we couldn't be happier. I also can't overlook how easy the Studio platform is to use and how much I appreciate being able to manage our site with ease."

Blotto found out about Legitify from an old friend and former business partner, Vince LaVecchia. Right as usual, Vin thought Legitify Studio would be a good option for Blotto's website: BIG images, a gallery/ store, blog, etc.

We hope to reduce our impact on global warming due to our server's electricity use by supporting new renewable energy projects. We also hope that someday soon our servers will be powered by renewable energy. Until then, the best thing we can do is offset our estimated server emissions.

Our Studio is in the Wing Building at Main Street Landing and we have been on the waterfront for almost five years. I live a little over 2 miles south just off of Route 7. I've biked to work, but never fully committed to make it happen frequently.

While the benefits of not driving by myself and biking instead for me were obvious - money saved, less gas consumed, less cars on the road, no emissions from my Blue, not Green, Jeep, etc. The unforeseen benefits in participating were TIME BETTER SPENT and a new ongoing COMMITTMENT.

Here are some high moments and realizations from my TIME BETTER SPENT commuting to and from work by bike during the commuter challenge:

• Enjoying a new appreciation for the familiar beauty of Lake Champlain on the Bike Path
• Feeling more connected to Burlington, Lake Champlain and Vermont
• Towing my 2 1/2 year old son in the bike trailer to school on his new way to bikepool commute to school
• Recognizing an increase in bike commuter traffic and feeling that there was a heightened awareness on the bike path with Way To Go Participants sharing friendly smiles
• I was happily surprised to find a short cut for my commute to access the bike path off of Pine Street and realized that biking to work can be faster than driving
• Getting home from work with renewed energy
• Biking alone is way more fun than driving alone
  

Congratulations to the success of this initiative! View Press Release

Special thanks to those who inspired me to participate, including:

• Bryan Davis who is a Transportation Planner for the Chittenden County Metropolitan Planning Organization - I met Bryan recently while discussing Legitify's role in a transportation related project and he turned me on to the Commuter Challenge
  
• Local Motion and their team
• Steve Crafts of Place Creative Company - Aside from being a personal friend and working with Place on projects, I see Steve out the window daily skiing or biking on his daily commute

Legitify recently launched Minadeo Partners and the website design matches the Firm's simple and elegant approach. The Firm has full control over of website content and can add projects, photo galleries and news updates with ease.
