Agricultural Changes Coming to a Grocery Store Near You with Dirk Winkelmann, President Vanguard Direct E126
2022-06-21
Consumers are disconnected from their food. Farmers might as well live on Mars. For most Americans, we have no idea what it takes to deliver fresh fruit and vegetables. We simply show up at the grocery store and expect the food to be fresh and taste good.
I am on a journey to change this! I have been looking for more Agriculture businesses to interview on the podcast and learn about the food system. Today Dirk Winkelmann, the President of Vanguard Direct, LLC joins me to discuss a summertime staple - the grape!
- Business model
- Roots not Seeds
- From planting to the first harvest - how long does it take to grow?
- Field trials
- The changes taking place in grocery
