Farmigo Eyes LA Next With $8M For Local Food

Farmigo, a startup developing an online marketplace connecting local farmers with consumers, said Tuesday that it has raised $8M in a Series B funding, and is eyeing Los Angeles as one of its next markets.

A Farmigo spokesperson said that the company is working with "a number of farms in LA" on its upcoming launch in the area. More information »
