The Norwich Meadows Farm Summer CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is now up! Scroll down for a video about the farm. Please note, the deadline to sign up is March 15th and deliveries start in mid June. "Why?" you ask. Well, this is the way of the CSA: You are an investor. You pay now, we send them the money asap. This chunk of money helps the farm fund the start of their season (when they have very little cash flow.) As an investor perk, you get 22 weeks of stuffed boxes of the highest quality, inspired veg for something around $40 a week. It's our fourth year with Norwich and their creativity and Egyptian farming techniques continue to inspire us. Invest here.

WHOOPSIES is popping up at the shop!
A home-cooking project from guys on the block Paden Spencer and Matthew Valenzuela, they started out by selling whoopie pies out of the front window of their apartment in Greenpoint. Soon enough they were slinging pies at different markets and venues in the hood, creating secret flavors, screen-printing merch in their kitchen, and sponsoring a racing team, all while gaining a cult following of friends, neighbors and strangers.
Come say hi and buy a pie and a poster this Saturday!
