Gardner, United States
The Forge
The Forge sits at 117 S Elm St in Gardner, Kansas, a small city on the southwestern edge of the Kansas City metro where farm country begins in earnest. The name signals something deliberate: a place where raw ingredients are worked into something finished. For diners curious about what the broader American farm-to-table movement looks like at a local scale, Gardner offers a grounded, unglamorous version of that conversation.
