Selling to restaurants and picky Chefs

Selling to restaurants and picky Chefs

Are you trying to expand the sales of your small farm to open up to restaurants. Take my warning and tips to selling to chefs. It is a busy market that requires a lot of preplanning on your part. Selling to restaurants is vastly different than selling on a produce stand at your local market. Restaurants can be, if you are operating your homestead as a business, a very profitable venture. Listen in as I give you a first hand guide on what I look for in people that provide local goods to the restaurants.

BONUS EPISODE!!!! Politics, Faith, and Homesteading

BONUS EPISODE!!!! Politics, Faith, and Homesteading

Congratulations to President-elect Joe Biden and VP Kamala Harris. Why I homestead in conjunction with politics, and what does my faith tell me about politics. Also we take time to pray for our new president.

I will leave the warning here. If you do not want to listen, it is ok, it is a bonus episode but it comes from the heart, and what I feel God has shown me this week as I prayed. I hope everyone of faith stops what they are doing and spends time praying for the outgoing President and spending some time praying for the President and VP elect. Politics aside, I don't want the captain to crash the boat we are all trying to survive on. Take your time, love your neighbor, pray for your neighbor. 

This is the only podcast I really bring up my faith. I am hoping it will not turn away listeners, but I do find a calling to pray for our new leadership, my neighbors, and those who rely on America. 

All love, and if this topic is not good for you there is a killer podcast episode premiered yesterday all about our farm and where we stand November 2020. Love all of my listeners, whether you are a democrat, republican, or independent. I love all of our international listeners who take the time to listen and pray for our countries leadership. Love you guys.
