Another great story on VSAG’s green restaurant operations work at Founding Farmers. Lancaster Farming News, that is…which is great because much of what arrives at the restaurant daily and weekly comes from farms in Lancaster County, PA and from surrounding areas!  Thanks to reporter Tracy Sutton for spending so much time with Founding Farmers, and for sharing the important story behind the restaurant with information about the restaurant’s 42,000 American family farmer-owners (North Dakota Farmers Union) and about how food gets from farm-to-table, with a quick stop in the Founding Farmers kitchen along the way!   Read all about it – A Restaurant For the People, By the Farmers.

VSAG begins work for the North Dakota Farmer’s Union developing the next generation concept of the NDFU’s “Agraria Restaurant” concept. The 8,500 square foot new concept focuses on “farm to table” and is slated to open in Q3 of 2008 in the I.M.F. Building in Washington DC, just blocks from The White House.

Owned by American Family Farmers, the project is anticipating a LEED Certification after opening. VSAG is thrilled to be leading this project from development through opening, and then ongoing as the Management Company.
