Kim Delaney farms with Aaron Lyons and Stephen Surgenessie at Hawthorn Farm Organic Seeds in Mount Forest, Ontario. They grow certified organic seeds on two farm sites for their online store and to distribute through Seedy Saturdays and through their wholesale seed rack program. In this episode, Kim discusses how she began her seed journey working in tall grass prairie restoration and how that blossomed into growing and selling vegetable, flower, and herb seeds. Kim also talks about how she has established and manages wild collection areas on her farm to harvest seed for wild bergamot, black-eyed Susan, milkweed, prairie grasses, and other plants. Kim explains how Hawthorn has worked with local farmers to grow seed on their farms as part of a transition town project where market growers grow the seed crop and Hawthorne would harvest and clean the seed. We discuss Kim's vision of what that could look like as a cross-country project. Kim also describes some of the seed infrastructure they've set up at Hawthorn including a seed dryer in a shipping container and a DIY air column. For this episode's technical section, Kim talks about growing and harvesting seeds from two native prairie grasses, Indian grass and blue stem grass.

Aaron Lyons came to the restaurant industry to create the guest experience he wanted. With a solid business background and education, but no restaurant industry experience, his years of business travel and dining out inspired his desire to develop a new fresh, farm-to-table concept. Following a career in finance and armed with an MBA, Aaron created a business plan for a new flex-casual restaurant with healthier menu offerings and an improved guest experience. In this episode, we learn how Aaron's process of concept development, site selection, and raising capital resulted in the launch of the first unit of Dish Society in 2014. He shares the challenges of a new concept, including long ticket times and inventory management problems, along with the systems and procedures he employed to create consistency. "We are a people-forward company," says Aaron. "A strong team led by my director of operations is why I expanded this concept into a five-unit company within six years." Earlier in 2022, Aaron and his team opened Daily Gather, a new full-service restaurant and bar with intentions of expansion. Dish Society and Daily Gather utilize current technology to market and operate more efficiently and effectively, with online orders for pickup and third-party delivery accounting for more than 40% of total revenue. With high unit success and multiple brands in operation, Aaron has no plan to slow down anytime soon. And despite his success in off-premises demand for his brands, says Aaron, "I remain bullish on the dine-in guest experience and believe in the need for people to have a place."

Zane and Brandon Hunt hail from Detroit, MI. They came to Austin, almost with the idea to open a pizza joint. In 2011 they started where they could, with a mobile food trailer they named Via 313 Pizza. Their vision was to offer the first Detroit style option outside of Detroit. It didn't take long for their native Detroit style pizza to take center stage within the Austin community. One trailer became multiple trailers and by 2014 the works to open their first brick and mortar location was in motion. Check out episode 560 with The Hunt Bros. as mentioned in today's episode.

We've all heard that full service has suffered the worst of the pandemic's effects, while quick service has thrived because of off-premises channels. But very few brands have experienced both sides of the service aisle quite like Dish Society.Launched in 2014, Dish Society is a flex-casual concept, serving counter service by day and full service by night at five Houston-area locations. And throughout the pandemic, the brand has witnessed first-hand how both service styles could be directly affected by COVID-19.Dish Society founder and CEO Aaron Lyons joins the podcast to talk about how the brand's service structure has fared during the pandemic, how he's planning to incorporate new off-premises strategies like ghost kitchens, and why he's still doubling down on full service moving forward.
