From Coronado Street to a Restaurant Near You

On today's Marketplace:
EVE TROEH: Home gardeners love to share their yield. Robert Coughlin is no exception. His 14-square foot plot is just dirt right now -- it's resting. But this spring it was full of lettuce.
A friend told him about Forage, a trendy new restaurant less than a mile from Coughlin's home in the Silver Lake neighborhood. The chef there would take produce from local gardeners, but the veggies had to audition.
Forage's chef Jason Kim took every leaf.
JASON KIM: That night we took his lettuces and we created Robert's Coronado Street Salad.
