Daniel Bartush is the Greenhouse and Crops Distribution Manager at Stone Barns Center. Prior to joining the Crops team, Daniel worked at Blue Hill at Stone Barns for almost five years as a line cook, sous chef, and most recently as market forager. Growing up in a small town in Texas, Daniel spent almost all of his time outdoors on his family’s ranch. After high school, he moved to New Orleans for college but was ultimately called to New York City’s kitchens. He was drawn to Stone Barns Center because of his interest in understanding the relationship between the consumer and farmer.

Off the farm: Daniel likes to cook, throw pottery, travel, watch thunderstorms, and flip through seed catalogs.
