This just in: you're hotter than a habanero!

We kitchen gardeners have known for a long time that we're ahead of the curve, but it's always nice to hear it coming from someone else's mouth. If you believe a recent survey of chefs by the National Restaurant Association [1], we are not just trendy but /ubertrendy /this year. Here are the top five eating trends for the year according to their survey. 1 Locally grown produce (we grow the "localest") 2 Bite-size/mini desserts (strawberries or grapes anyone?) 3 Organic produce (check) 4 Nutritionally balanced children’s dishes (yep, we grow those too) 5 New/fabricated cuts of meat (Not sure what this means. Not sure we want to know. 4 out of 5 ain't bad!) [1] http://www.restaurant.org/pressroom/social_media_chef_survey.cfm
