Root Revival, like any good garden, started off with a seed.
In this case, the idea of the community-supported, no-waste garden planting and cultivating business founded by Alex Schenk and Mike McKinney sprouted when McKinney began offering some of his homegrown produce to Komrades, Schenk’s food truck, a few years ago.
“I worked with Alex and was growing some greens in my backyard, and when we started using them with the food truck, we had a really good reaction from the customers,” McKinney said.
The idea began to grow.
The two built an additional garden at Schenk’s house, where they would harvest beets, carrots and greens for the food truck.
