Whether a marriage of convenience or mutual desperation caused by the pandemic, the trend is turning many people onto the benefits of local food. Similarly, back in Brooklyn, Schuman-Strange says he and his group have become hooked on the incredible quality of the ingredients they’re now enjoying, like pastured eggs with deep-orange yolks. When he was working as a chef, Schuman-Strange says he would often grab food at his local bodega after his shift because he was working 14 hours a day, and didn’t have time to get to the farmers market for his own shopping.
Yet, with so many newcomers to the concept of farm-delivered food, the last couple of months have been something of a mass introductory period for local, seasonal eating. And for many regions, it hasn’t come at the most opportune time. Given the relatively short growing season in the Denver area, for instance, Farm to Fork supplements off-season boxes with organic produce from large distributors.
