Chef Jose Garces Featured in Wall Street Journal

Posted by Maegan Cadet on October 19th, 2012

In a recent article by The Wall Street Journal about chefs who have farms, Chef Jose Garces was featured for his Luna Farm in Ottsville, Pennsylvania. Garces’ 40-acre farm supplies produce for a majority of his restaurants.

The farm collects eggs from his 75 Rhode Island red and barred-rock chickens and produces one thousand pounds of produce weekly. Though his farm is managed by a local farmer, Garces is still getting used to owning a farm and dealing with the unpredictable forces of nature. After two nearly disastrous floods, Garces attributes the problems to inexperience.
