I got a gig working with a farm, about 3 hours north of New York City.

..and so now I get to take home a great selection of produce, get out of the city, and learn about the local, agricultural production side of the local food movement. Getting my hands dirty, while giving my lungs a break, and my nose a whiff of that sweet country air, is hard to resist, and a perfect addition to my more usual daily local life experience

So far, my experience with food has been cooking it, serving it, and of course eating it. I cant wait to go back upstate next week. Until then I will post any local foodie news I come across in Brooklyn, New York.
