You got it. I could use their produce in our meals and help promote them. I can also talk to a few of the other restaurant owners I've been dealing with and pitch them their way, too.

It's too early to tell, but if we get off to a decent start or if they want to do it, I could probably have a small joint venture so they can sell their fruits alongside our place. The restaurant is going to be called "From the Hearth," so it would fit well with our image—and help our goal of connecting with the locals.
