Join The Youth Farm for our 4th Annual Summer Supper, “A Midsummer Night’s Farm Dream!”
The Youth Farm is a 1-acre educational farm located on the grounds of the Wingate Campus in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Since 2009, our mission has been to grow fresh, culturally relevant, nutritious food and to cultivate a restorative and educational green space for all the members of our Crown Heights/East Flatbush community. We provide paid summer jobs for high school youth, as well as in-depth organic urban farming certification to adults, in the hopes of increasing and multiplying our diverse city’s ability to sustain communities with nourishing food and green spaces.
The Youth Farm, like so many green spaces across NYC, helps our community to maintain a vital connection to nature, maintain agricultural knowledge and traditions, and provide leadership and green job training opportunities for youth and adults. We are rooted in values of food justice: in co-creating an educational space informed by and celebrating the diversity of our neighborhood and city, and honoring the knowledge bred by diverse lived experience.
You will be transported through Chef Arden’s delectable bites and delightful sounds atop the world’s largest rooftop farm – another oasis brimming with soil and biological life! You’ll savor gorgeous views, and a seasonal meal curated carefully with locally produced vegetables, herbs, dairy, meat and grains, complimented by locally produced wine and beer, and other non alcoholic drinks. We will also have a fantastic raffle with lots of great prizes!
