The Farmer & The Chef, a Documentary About David Kinch, to Premiere in March

A documentary about two Michelin-starred chef California chef David Kinch of Manresa and farmer Cynthia Sandberg is set to premiere this March. An official synopsis of The Farmer & The Chef describes the one-hour documentary as behind the scenes look at "how two creative geniuses grow and serve the perfect meal." The film tracks how Sandberg transformed a 2 acre garden into Love Apple Farms, which provides much of Manresa's produce. The film also shows how Kinch dealt with a remodel at Manresa. The documentary is directed by Mike Whalen (Another First Step, FRESH Women, A Question of Habit).

The Farmer & The Chef will make its debut at the Cinequest film festival in San Jose on March 9, and tickets are available now. While there is not a formal trailer as of yet, the videos below give a sense of what the film is all about.
