Uriahs Farm – Grow Up Tampa Bay
David Smiles, aka “Farmer Dave” is proving the economic model in Tampa while currently supplying 6 top Chefs in the area with customized high quality herbs and produce. The chef dictates the need of herbs and produce according to the menu and they are cycled to deliver the entire panel, still growing and alive, directly to the kitchen. With advanced technology just weeks away the existing facility at the Roosevelt 2.0 is going to be retrofitted to serve over 20 chefs in less than 600 square feet of space! Of the current 6 Chefs the famous Berns Steakhouse provides a rotating menu and over 500,000 bottles of wine while providing a unique and memorable dining experience like no other. The potency of the herbs being grown reduce the usage in half in comparison to traditional purchases from food distributors, the herbs and produce go from wall to table in seconds instead of hours, days or weeks.
