Spinaca Farms president Zack Andrade grows vegetables commercially on California’s Central Coast. After a major setback for the business, Zack turned Spinaca Farms around with a simple idea that has changed the way he sees agriculture. With heart and wit to spare, Zack shared with me how he grew up in King City, studied Ag Business at Cal Poly, and why he was up in the middle of the night picking crushed ice out of a truck of broccoli florets.
