Cryptographically signed receipts, of course.

sigh sometimes I hate the people on HN.

I... don't know where the sarcasm or hatred came from. Do these questions seem unfair to you?

a) you'll just have to trust them, the same as you trust any merchant to deliver what is promised.

b) turn down clients until they can accommodate.

Wow, this was much better than my answer! Thanks :)

Heh, np. I"m not in the area so I won't be able to sign up, but this seems like one of those "holy crap, why didn't someone think of this before" kind of ideas. Good luck with it :)

Thanks! :D

I guess you can never be entirely sure. (Do you have any ideas about how we can prove this to people?) Sometimes, we like to slip in notes about where the food came from, but we don't have any rigid guidelines set in place right now.

Perhaps you could have a nice looking "Our Food Sources" page that details the markets, farmers, etc? I might be the minority on this, but when I see food locally sourced I'm more likely to buy it than generic food brand X.

Locally sourced to me = fresher, healthier, and better for my local economy obviously

Great idea, thanks!
