    Gary Sidhu is the owner of SILK Dinner Lounge. He began farming at a young age in his hometown of Kalyan Sukha District Bathinda in Punjab, India, alongside his siblings, learning from his father. After he moved to Canada, he continued his work in the farming industry in both field farms and greenhouses for many years, while dreaming of one day opening his own organic restaurant.
