If there is one thing you could explain to the American consumer about your business, what would it be?
00:06
I would like the consumer to understand that the person that does all the work and has all the investment
00:12
is doing it literally for nothing, and that the middlemen are getting all the money.
00:17
I've been writing about food for 50 years, trying to get Americans to care more about it.
00:22
Ruth Reichel.
00:22
The revered restaurant critic for the New York Times.
00:25
Ruth Reichel.
00:26
Gourmet magazine editor.
00:27
I really can't send cameras to anyone, you know.
00:30
That's right, that's right.
00:33
COVID was the wake-up call.
00:34
Our broken food system was exposed.
00:36
You have restaurants all over the world, right?
00:39
Had is a key word there.
00:41
The big issue is keeping all of our purveyors alive.
00:47
The CEO of Tyson said the American food system is breaking.
00:51
Yeah, you're right.
00:53
The majority of mass agriculture in the United States is all about how cheaply can you produce it.
01:00
And that's what's gotten us to where we are.
01:02
The decree for risk these folks take on is staggering.
01:07
Go to any financial advisor and say,
01:09
all right, I'm going to risk $8 million this year and I'm going to work 100 hours a week for a $50,000 return.
01:15
Man, they're going to tell you you're an idiot.
01:18
Farming economics has been stressful.
01:21
We're at cost of production or less.
01:23
You know, what is your worth? What's your value?
01:26
We understand that model of economics and we don't want any part of it.
01:29
If those senators and representatives are smart, you don't want this country's food supply in limited hands.
01:36
When we hired a hundred and something young, educated, passionate people,
01:42
they needed a place to eat and sleep and shop and play.
01:47
And so we built.
01:48
When you ask the ocean what to grow,
01:50
the ocean says grow things that won't swim away and you don't have to feed.
01:53
When I grew this tomato and I bit into it, it just rocked my world.
01:58
And everything is tied to everything else.
02:00
I don't think of this farm as a factory.
02:02
I think of it as an organism.
02:04
That biodiversity is just waiting for us.
02:08
What resulted is a really nice community.
02:11
It's still tiny, but it's gone from ghost town, literally, to destination in a decade.
02:19
So I'm very proud of that.
