A Growing Passion
From Farm to Fork
Season 6
Episode 4
If you've eaten in a sit-down restaurant, no doubt you've heard of farm-to-table or farm-to-fork, the movement that directly connects farmers with chefs and restaurants. It means that your meal is made from fruits, herbs, and vegetables -- even fish and meats - that were locally grown and produced. It all sounds so romantic, but how does farm to fork really happen? And who is making it happen?
