I spent the last 15 years building a fast-casual restaurant chain with my best friends. Now, it’s time for my next thing. So, I’m starting with a theory (a.k.a dream) that a craft food brand can change the game by restoring a lost, local food economy. If I’m right, it will mean that we revive the critical connections between family farmers, artisans, and communities and that we return health, prosperity and goodness to our food chain. I plan to document my journey on this blog every week. So, there’ll be lots of research, self-discovery, and mistakes to share along the way. But, there’s one thing that won’t be researched or mistaken. I know for certain that my next thing will stand for impact, community, and goodness. And it will make everyone who’s a part of it proud.
