Online Directory – 2 Audiences
A rather complex site with two distinct audiences (Eaters and Farmers), it was necessary to quickly convey the purpose of the Kansas City Food Circle and direct each audience to their respective pages while providing a high level of friendly usability.

My Task
My Task
In the development of this new site, it was necessary to completely rethink the way site visitors would interact with the website, outlining multiple use cases then organizing for flow and ease of use. Additionally, it uses a membership login section for member farmers to create and edit their own listings in a searchable directory. Many custom graphics were created to enhance visitor experience and continue to build the KCFC brand.
