Remember MilkCrate, the super useful sustainability app we told you guys was in the works a few months ago? Well, the Philly-based app has officially launched, and if shopping and eating sustainably are high on your list of priorities, you’re definitely going to want to get your hands on it, stat.

A quick refresher on MilkCrate: In short, the free app is a great big searchable map of sustainable businesses in Philly. So, based on your location, you can quickly track down a spot to grab a cup of organic fair-trade coffee, a place to pick up a locally made birthday gift for your mom, or a hair salon that uses all organic products. Simply put, it takes the hassle out of tracking down Earth-friendly businesses near you—finally!

Back in May, MilkCrate already had over 1,600 Philly businesses in its database, and we’re guessing that number has gone up. So you can say goodbye to Google searches like “Is there a farmers’ market in Fishtown?” because, chances are, MilkCrate has what you’re looking for listed. You can find out more and download the app here.
