Evan Chender The Culinary Gardener

The Winter Growers Podcast

Evan Chender, The Culinary Gardener, farms in Weaverville, NC. He started his farm in 2013 and has 2 acres under cultivation, using multiple caterpillar and high tunnels. Coming from a background as a chef, Even is passionate about variety selection, soil health, crop quality, and meticulous harvest/processing techniques. 95% of his sales are to restaurants. A big portion of his Winter production is radicchio, so we spend a lot of time discussing the planning, growing, harvesting, and processing techniques, tastes, and success with this incredibly delicious and beautiful Winter crop. I just couldn't get enough!
