Growing local

There is a trend right now in Brooklyn that is the coolest thing ever and it's rooftop farming! For decades people have been trying to recreate nature within their urban landscape by creating rooftop gardens and it looks like new yorkers are now more and more educated and ready to take it to the next level to actually grow their own veggies and green food.  We all know the benefits of buying and eating local.  Definitely a step in the right direction for urban life.

Not to mention that rooftops gardens and farms are such an eye candy for a city like ours!

If you wish to visit a (rather large) public rooftop farm, here is the list of the 5 top urban farms in NYC.

Hope for Japan, a year later.

On March eleven, it will be the first anniversary of the tragedy that moved all eyes toward japan and we want to remind you that people are still very much in needs.

There will be a lot of tribute and memorial events throughout the city this weekend so check your local news and calendars. 

Here is a link to the fund raising event in Brooklyn we'll be attending on Saturday the 10th.

We hope to see you there and share a smile, a glass of wine and a prayer for the great people of Japan.
