Potager cooks up a celebration of 25 years of farm-to-table fare.
If you've visited Potager recently, you may have noticed a new staff member doing everything from hosting and busing to prepping in the kitchen — all at just two and a half."It's really something to behold," says chef Paul Warthen of his son, William Gardner Warthen, affectionately called Gardy — or"the Potager baby."
When the couple moved to Denver in 2017, they didn't know that restaurant ownership was on the horizon. But as she researched places she might work, Eileen, a native New Yorker and certified sommelier, kept seeing the name Potager."It was my first serving job when I moved to Denver, and I felt really grateful to be a part of it," she recalls.
"She fell in love with a man she met in 2017 at the Boulder Farmers Market, actually," Eileen says. They got married and relocated to Maine, where Rippeto now runs a flower shop — though her original mission is never far from the Warthens' minds. Less than a year after becoming Potager's owners and a few months into becoming new parents, the Warthens faced a challenge no one saw coming: the pandemic. When it was announced that all restaurants were required to shut down indoor dining beginning on March 17, 2020,"we decided that we didn't want anyone to lose their jobs," Eileen says.
While there have been a few more hiccups, including another indoor-dining shutdown in late 2020 and slow months early this year when the Omicron variant spiked, Potager has weathered the challenges and done so at its own pace, not rushing to go back to full capacity, and focusing on its goal of being a true farm-to-table neighborhood staple.
