This video is courtesy of Make Beautiful: It's a acre property on Yankee Road atop Lookout Mountain in rural Dade County where Dorris Shober, the owner of Lupi's Pizza, and her husband, John Shober, a land surveyor, for the past three years have raised pigs, cattle, egg-laying hens and — during the growing season — organically-grown zucchinis, cucumbers, basil, green peppers, three different varieties of tomatoes and almost 50 different kinds of flowers used in bouquets.
Advantages of locally produced food cited by Lupi's include better taste, quality and freshness.
And it's easier on the environment, Shober said. This year, Flying Turtle Farm delivered more than 2, pounds of vegetables, over 3, pounds of beef and sausage and bouquets of flowers to Lupi's, she said. The farm's meat, produce and flowers get delivered by pickup truck to Chattanooga on Mondays and Fridays.
On its trip back to the farm, the pickup truck hauls away pre-consumer kitchen food waste, stale bread and the like that's fed to the farm's pigs. Lupi's still relies on other area farms to fill the gaps and put as much local food as possible in the restaurants.

They lived there while her ex-husband went to graduate school.
