Kitchen Design Center Your Personality, Our Expertise. 7736 Post Rd., North Kingstown • 401.294.6500 • heritagekitchendesignri.com “If there’s anything we’re going to sell here that isn’t from our farm, it has to be 100 percent grass-fed, and I have to go and see the animals,” Welch says. “It says it on the sign, so it has to be authentic.” Graze also serves Bell and Evans crispy and grilled chicken sandwiches, all-natu- ral hot dogs, the hand-cut french fries and frozen custard shakes. Plus, vegans and vegetarians can bite into the Impossible Burger, made to look and taste like a real burger, but it’s completely plant-based. It’s somewhat daunting for Welch to be involved in two difficult business mod- els — farming and restaurants — but it’s rewarding and “altruistic” work for him, he says. “My farm is vertically integrated into a restaurant, and I think for a farm to be sustainable, you have to figure out a way to capture as much of the value chain as possible,” he says. “It gives you a chance. It’s not like anyone is going to get rich doing this, but hopefully it will be viable.” And based on the response at the burger restaurant, people aren’t grazing, they’re inhaling.
