We catch up with Farmer Evan Gregoire again, while he's on vacation in the San Juan Islands. Even operates an urban farm, from where he supplies veggies to consumers and the restaurant industry, as well as an opportunity to purchase seeds for those growing their own. Chris and Evan we talk about some of the joys and challenges that come with that. We also discuss some of Evan's favorite chefs and places. From Evan's Heirloom Seedhouse website: At the heart of the Seedhouse beats a passion for nurturing nature’s bounty and preserving its precious gifts. We dream of cultivating a diverse array of specialty vegetables and flowers, not just for their culinary delights, but as living legacies of resilience. Our mission stretches far beyond the fields; it’s a commitment to safeguarding these resilient varieties for generations to come. As we gaze into the future, we see a changing landscape, both in our region and our climate. It’s a call to action, urging us to deepen our understanding and connection to our local food systems. Through the simple act of planting and saving seeds, we can weave a tapestry of resilience, rooted in the soil of community and nourished by knowledge. In our journey, education becomes our guiding light, illuminating the path towards a more sustainable tomorrow. We invite our community to join us, to learn, to grow, and to sow the seeds of change together. For in this shared endeavor lies the promise of a brighter, greener future, where every seed planted is a testament to our collective stewardship of the Earth It’s through the valuable input of growers, chefs, and our community that we can continually refine and elevate the flavors of our vegetables. By listening to their insights, preferences, and suggestions, we not only enhance the taste of our produce but also cultivate a strong demand for these unique varieties. So, let’s keep those lines of communication open and thriving, because together, we can cultivate a truly exceptional culinary experience!
