Updated seasonality (in-season) information.

Has Potential
Needs to add information. Such as what do all the colors (oranges and greens, etc...) mean? Also, I live DOWNTOWN Atlanta and it did not recognize my zip code. Also, no recipes were listed. It would be great to know what is fresh and what to make with those ingredients. I hope there will be continual improvement on the app, because it has the potential to be off the hook!
So far we love it
Shows what's in season and exactly where to get it fresh and locally.
Can't Find Location
I live in NYC-when it looks automatically for my location it puts me in Chicago. When I type my zip in manually it says 'Cannot determine your state.' I try a few more local zips. Nada. Sooo-totally useless for the 8million living in NYC.
