Farming and Breeding Fresh, Local Rabbits for New York City Restaurants
In our never-ending quest to show you how local food is raised and brought to market, I?m going to take you on a little tour inside a rabbit farm ? John Fazio?s Rabbit Farm. Yes, he?s the same farmer who raises ducks for big name chefs in New York City. But, you should note, he was known for his prized rabbits even before he started raising ducks. And he delivers them fresh, never frozen to NYC kitchens no more than a day or two after ?processing? ? offering a service that is really hard to find for local chefs. So, I wanted to share with you the short tour John Fazio gave me. It was never meant to be a video story, but I just couldn?t pass up the education. I don?t think most people have ever seen a commercial rabbit operation. I hadn?t. And all I can tell you is that it?s interesting, very organized and very clean. So come along as John Fazio tours us through his facility, and shows his methods for raising fresh, local rabbits. For more info on the farm, please contact me on Twitter: @SkeeterNYC Or to purchase or taste John Fazio?s rabbits, please visit Marlow & Sons or Marlow & Daughters in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, or Savoy in SoHo. Thanks for watching food. curated.
