Look for a romantic and environmentally responsible restaurant to take your Valentine’s date.
- Local Harvest has a great restaurant finder feature.
- Organic Highways has a database of restaurants in categories like Organic, Other, and Whole Grain.
- The Organic Food Database has a small listing of restaurants.
- The Huffington Post has a map of locavore restaurants contributed by readers.
My favorite fancy restaurant in Rochester is Lento, which focuses on seasonal and local foods. They list the local farms they work with, and even hold events to connect diners with farmers. And, even though they aren’t usually open on Sundays, they are open for Valentine’s Day (hint, hint, J). 
Where do you go for sustainable meals?
I’m so fortunate to live in San Francisco, where almost all of the “nicer” restaurants are green and use sustainable, local, organic, seasonal ingredients. I’m so interested in hearing what other people are doing!
