best product. I sort of am just
a good shepherd of it and I'm
the last link in the chain to
bring it from the farm to the
plate,' " Lee said.
He recommends growers find
the top chefs in their area and
send them a sample of their
best product.
" Don't worry about scale just
yet, " Lee said. " Just find the best
product you can possibly grow
- maybe that's only a half-acre
of something - and just start
sending cases of that stuff to
that person. That's the strategy
I've seen work that I think is a
little bit more practical and is a
lot more efficient because then
farmers can spend most of their
time growing, not worrying
about public relations. "

The Future of Food: Envisioning the
Next Decade in Food and Potatoes
Mike Lee, Co-Founder & Co-CEO, Alpha
Food Lab and Founder, The Future Market
Whether consumers think
they want to be healthy or
they think they want to buy
sustainably, Lee said they will
ultimately make their choice
with their palettes and flavor.
" People want simple food
and when you have something
simple with not a lot of
processing, the spotlight shines
back on the ingredient, and
when it's on the ingredient it
goes back to the farmer. "
