In this episode we meet a paraplegic farmer who has little patience for sympathy, but a big heart for earth friendly produce. Farmer Tim Gilmer says “I feel grateful to be working, and I couldn't ask for a better work situation... I'm compelled by a need to act responsibly and do my best.” Chef Philippe Boulot is grateful for the impeccable ingredients that Gilmer grows. “Not only are Tim’s ingredients the best tasting, I know he farms without chemicals and that’s important to me, my family, and my community. His goal is to leave the land in better condition than it was when he began farming, to produce food that is safe and healthy” says Boulot. The farmer, chef, and daughter roll through the rows selecting prime ingredients for one of Portland’s best restaurants. Chef Boulot shows off his James Beard award‐winning cuisine with his daughter‐ and favorite farmer, as apprentice.
