Urban Farmer also emphasizes fresh ingredients and sourcing from local producers. “Focusing on sustainable practices, Urban Farmer creates a connection between the diner and our local farmers, ranchers, distillers and winemakers,” said Executive Chef Matt Christianson. Again, like The Farm Café, this kinship to growers despite its big-city locale has earned Urban Farmer a Regional Star Award.
