The Educated Eater, Greenmarkets' series on Good Food and the Environment

First Presbyterian Church

Did you know there are eggs and wheatgrass from Brooklyn, rooftop beehives in the Bronx, a thriving 2.5 acre community farm in Red Hook and livestock roaming on 47 acres in Queens? These are just a few examples of what urban pioneers are doing to revive agriculture in the city. Join us for an engaging conversation with leaders and innovators in the urban agriculture movement followed by a Q&A, moderated by Greenmarket Director and Co-founder of Added Value (Red Hook Community Farm), Michael Hurwitz.

Panelists include Greenmarket farmer and wheatgrass grower Stewart Borowsky of Greener Pastures, Greenmarket farmer and beekeeper David Graves of Berkshire Berries, Greenmarket farmer Michael Robertson of Queens County Farm Museum, Dan Wood of Work Architecture Company and Red Hook egg farmers Maria Mackin & Declan Walsh
