Jorgensen Farms, a Westerville-based community-agriculture-ecology-research-education center, brought together chefs and farmers from Central Ohio to talk about getting more local foods to local tables. Along with members of Chefs Collaborative, the Ohio Ecological Food & Farms Association, Innovative Farmers of Ohio and the Greater Columbus Foodshed Project, Jorgensen Farm wants to encourage “the preservation of family farms.” Chefs who expressed interest in the program were from: the Bexley Monk, Dragonfly Neo-V, the Elevator Brewing Company, The New Albany Country Club and Katzinger’s in the Columbus area. Let those restaurants know you’d like to see them see more locally-grown foods on their menus!
