Hi All,
My friend Virginia Dec is moving to Little Rock to co-run a newly opening
restaurant. A few questions:
1.They hope to buy as much as possible from local organic farmers and would
like to know what mechanisms are already in place for doing this (farmers'
co-op, direct purchasing).
2. In the long run she would also like to farm and would like to start
meeting organic farmers to get to know the region, etc. Any introductions?
3. In the short run she'd like to grow on land close in. Are there community
garden plots? Any farmers really close in that would like a helper or
willing to rent a bit of land?
4. I know she'd like to meet other chefs (anyone around from the Chefs'
Collaborative?).
Mmm. Good food soon. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.
