What happens when a career in film and television leads you to hydroponic farming? For Josh Smith, it led to Neon Greens, a farm-to-table salad spot in St. Louis with a bigger mission behind it.
In Episode 58, Alexis Zotos sits down with Josh to talk about his unexpected journey and how it all comes down to his love of storytelling. Neon Greens in The Grove neighborhood of St. Louis features a connected greenhouse where they grow the majority of the lettuce featured in their salads. Josh shares what inspired the career pivot, what he discovered while learning how to grow food in a completely different way, and why he believes St. Louis can rethink the way we eat.
Plus we chat about touring the greenhouse, why they opened up a breakfast concept called Biscuit Town inside the restaurant and what comes next for Neon Greens.
