The Villages - August 2021 - 22

we're one of the only CEA (controlled environment
agriculture) companies that is promoting
a 'food as medicine' approach that is community
centric - nobody else is doing that. So, it's really
getting a lot of attention, and it just keeps getting
bigger and bigger and bigger. "
Through its distributors, The Villages Grown
is on tables and supermarkets throughout the
entire state of Florida - in many cases in places
where Waxman and Wright had no idea Villages
Grown products were distributed. They share a story
of visiting a restaurant in New Smyrna Beach and
discovering Villages Grown products were on the
menu - something that gives them a huge sense of
satisfaction and accomplishment.
One such
initiative
they
are
proud
of
is
a
partnership with local Publix stores to sell Villages
Grown products in the produce section. Following
a successful test run in the Colony Plaza Publix, the
Villages Grown initiative is now in all Publix stores
in The Villages area, with a dedicated Villages Grown
display in the produce section of the supermarket.
That is just one example of their hyperlocal approach
to providing food to local restaurants and supermarkets,
and Waxman says they have been getting
much more attention in recent weeks and months.

IT' S SO CRAZY, AND IT' S
EXCITING - WE ARE JUST
TEARING THROUGH THOUSANDS
OF POUNDS OF TOMATOES.
IT' S INCREDIBLE.
- Adam Wright
" We have national chains coming to us as a supply
chain solution, " she said. " That just doesn't happen.
Normally, they go to a distributor and say they want a
certain amount of product - they don't go to the farm
and say, 'How can I work with you?' "
