PROFILE


Celebrated chef Dan Barber is at the forefront of a new frontier in food. His philosophy-practiced at his Blue Hill restaurants-is that by combining old world farming wisdom with new agricultural technologies, we can create food that is at once delicious, innovative, healthy, and environmentally responsible. Whether you call it the locavore movement, slow food, or farm-to-table, Dan Barber's principles have changed the way many Americans approach farming and food. And while no one label can entirely capture Barber's work, we can think of one that's a perfect fit for this pioneering chef: Character Approved.
