This week’s podcast features Michael Ray Robinov. You’ll get to know Michael, who, after a life’s-path pivot found himself on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. Envisioning a life in the performing arts, Michael attended NYU’s Tisch School Of The Arts only to be pulled towards farming and food, following in his entrepreneurial father’s footsteps. Michael took over the helm of what’s known today as Farm To People, simplifying the CSA experience for city dwellers and connecting customers who care with tons of amazing local farms and their bounty. I’ve been a devoted customer forever and recommend their weekly produce-filled boxes to everyone and anyone. It’s a $25 game changer, so it was great to peek behind the curtain on this business where—pardon the pun but it’s true---care, is a key ingredient. Truly. I was joking with Michael about how Farm To People is the only business I’ll call when I have a question, and I actually get a thoughtful, informative human being on the other end of the line. And a lot of the times, that’s Michael himself. Michael talks about how how he’s evolved and developed the brand to include a Brooklyn-based brick and mortar space, and expanded their offerings from the best in pantry items to supreme meat, fish, and baked goods. Boy did life change when he took that job at the Hawthorne Valley farm stand (who happen to make some of the best sauerkraut you’ve ever tasted). This conversation wraps with a wellness-driven list of Michael’s self care practices that I love, and you’ll also hear his take on the best recipes for all those good spring and summer vegetables.
