Your friendly neighborhood rooftop farm (didn't know you had one, did you?) wants you to improve your brain AND your diet! In addition to operating a CSA, farmers' market, and education programs,
Eagle Street Rooftop Farm will be hosting a
Read and Eat series at 2 pm Saturdays this fall, featuring food-related authors reading from their work, as well as sharing recipes and snacks. This Saturday kicks off the series with Cathy Erway, who writes the blog
Not Eating Out in New York, and recently published
The Art of Eating In (which I just finished and found thoroughly charming). If city life has you jonesing to get your hands dirty in a real live garden, get there early for Open Farm Day from 9 am to 2 pm, when they welcome volunteers.
Saturday 9/5, 2 pm:
Cathy Erway, author of
The Art of Eating In
Saturday, 9/19, 2 pm:
Anna Lappé, author of
Diet for a Hot Planet
Saturday, 9/26, 2 pm:
Annie Hauck-Lawson, co-editor of
Gastropolis
The Farm is also open to the public on Sundays from 10am-4pm (check their calendar to confirm). They are located on Eagle Street between Franklin and West in Greenpoint, North Brooklyn.
