The Farmer & The Chef takes viewers behind the scenes to see how two creative geniuses struggle to grow and serve the perfect meal in America. It's about the passion two people have for farming and cooking in a biodynamic way, that is, in a manner that respects the environment and is sustainable. It's the ultimate farm to table experience and viewers will have a front row seat to see how it's done. The possibilities are endless, but so are the potential pitfalls. The success of the restaurant is inexorably tied to the success of the farm. If one fails, both suffer. It's about a return to old values with new technologies. It's about respecting the land and the environment while still making a good living. It's about a farmer respecting a chef and a chef respecting a farmer.
