臺東縣縱谷地區有著乾淨無污染的環境,加上人文與地理交錯形成多元族群融合生活的特性,臺東縣政府自2012年起,選定此區域開始推動「一個人的產地餐桌」計畫,縱谷地區成為臺東慢食發展較早之地區,因此了解此區域業者經營發展有其重要性。本研究主要目的即在調查「一個人的產地餐桌」計畫參與業者參與前後之態度、過程中遭遇的挑戰、與小農生產連結的議題及參與計畫後對自身經營的影響。研究採質性研究法,資料蒐集方式透過半結構式訪談大綱進行深度訪談,以參加本計畫比賽獲選團隊的業者為訪談對象,共計9人。研究結果發現,隨著計畫參與時間增加,受訪業者漸次了解慢食之意涵,在態度上也從原有的觀望態度和個人效益取向,轉化成對土地生產倫理和對料理與族群文化連結的正視。在面對之挑戰部分,除經營方式改變產生之成本提高、利潤下降外,與小農配合的食材獲得是主要之議題,然而磨合過程,也逐漸與小農連結,更建立了在地小農和餐飲業者的夥伴網絡。在參與計畫後之影響部分,受訪業者多認為帶動了當地、當時令與環境友善生產認同,也帶動了自身族群文化認同和以飲食為認識族群文化的中介,在經濟上,則認為帶動了地方另類產業網絡的形成與平日商機增加,在社會面向則為帶動對在地認識的熱情,更帶動了一種人與人「相信」的關係。
