Evento

The Greenmarket Inspired Kitchen; Tour and Cooking Class

Summer Greenmarkets are alive with local fruits, vegetables, fresh caught fish, and humanely produced meat from local farms. Come meet the farmers and learn a little more about where your food comes from on a walking tour of the Greenpoint/McCarren Park Greenmarket in Brooklyn. Then join us at nearby Brooklyn Kitchen Labs where we'll work together to cook up a three course lunch featuring the wonderful food we picked at Greenmarket. Our lunch will be accompanied by specially selected New York State wines. Your palate will welcome the amazing flavors of summer! The Tour will start at Union Avenue and North 12th St., on the south side of McCarren Park, in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, at 9am, rain or shine. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Urban Harvest programs of Slow Food NYC including Harvest Time in Schools, Neighborhood Farms, and "Snail" Bucks, coupons used by the Greenmarket Education Program that enable participating children to buy fresh produce from Greenmarket farmers.
