Local Food Fine Print

by

In the Local Food Fine Print, we interview food buyers to learn how farmers can access their market and improve relations with buyers. The focus is on intermediate markets like co-ops, restaurants, food hubs, grocery stores, etc. Plus, we discuss details like insurance, food safety, volume requirements, and more. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-azleAxfuibg/WwRWTH7TAWI/AAAAAAAACC0/W82vmqatm4o0cwWw2a6UFkOgSEgQb8bPwCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/small%2Bfarms%2Blocal%2Bfood%2Bfine%2Bprint.pngIn Episode 6, I continue the conversation with Colleen, Kitchen Manager at the Blue Heron in Winona, MN.

The Blue Heron incorporates a lot of locally sourced produce and meat on their menu, we discuss communication, farmer check-ins, size specifications, pricing, deliveries, and sourcing.
