I'm so happy I found this post. I am also a college student trying to find other local LC'ers. I'm in Sacramento right now, but I am moving to Monterey in August and I can't find a single LC'er from that area.
I'm worried that I won't be able to find good stuff down there. I hear there is a Trader Joe's, but those can be hit or miss depending on the location.
I'll keep checking in, it's great we found eachother!
