20080806-alaska.jpgAccording to a New York Times reader, Finn's Pizza in Homer, Alaska, offers terrific thin-crust pizza made with local ingredients in a wood-burning oven. But how long can tomato-growing season really be in Alaska?

And, he pointed out, "locavore" toppings could also include smoked salmon.
