I had a chef call on Thursday wanting Micro Greens for a party on Saturday, like all I have to do is shake my wand and it is instantly growing on a tree in December, Yes. The idea that if you want to buy it in August, you may need to talk to me about it the previous January as I may need to order seed and start plants by March takes a certain amount of education. As does the idea that it's necessary to check both what's in season usually at a given time of year, and how the particular year's weather is behaving, before promising to cook a specific item for a shindig on a particular day. Of course, there's also the possibility that the restaurant which sat down with the farmer for a long conversation in midwinter and said they wanted to buy all sorts of stuff may not want it at all by the time it's ready. I would also be interested in seeing advice on selling to chefs/restaurants. I'm not very good at it. -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 5 mostly Fresh-market organic produce, small scale |
