Several places. You can get cheap ones on eBay or Amazon, better ones from a vendor such as OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/, and original equipment from Apple.

My 2007 MacBook battery lasted for about four years, when it failed I bought a cheap one, $55, from Amazon, it didn't fit right. They cheerfully replaced it with another that didn't fit right, they refunded my money. I then went to OWC and bought a better one, everything was great but it lasted only 18 months. Mostly our fault because I don't think we cycled the battery enough as it stayed on the charger most of the time. I then bought an Apple battery and it lasted until the logic board failed on my MacBook earlier this year. Moral of the story is that I don't trust the cheap ones, thought the better one was a good value and trusted the expensive original equipment from Apple the most. Several people on here will tell you that they prefer the cheap ones, it's your choice.
