Last Week's Farm Photos

20090723__MG_2874
This week I visited some farms to familiarize myself with their land and their stories.

There is one key thing that I have learned from many farm visits over the years:
Everyone does it differently!
5 different growers in SW michigan- 5 different approaches.

I love hearing every grower's stories and approaches- and most importantly witnessing every one of these farmers passion for providing the best product to their customers.

As consumers, we are always a customer of a farm- whether directly or indirectly! Know the Story!
Currently we are working with businesses in the city to create these farm stories- and to build our site.
Please contact us at Hello@dishesanddirt.com for information on how to participate.

We can hardly wait for what's in store!
