Green Top Farms was founded in 2013 by a fifth-generation farmer-turned-NYC public school teacher looking to connect local farms with urban communities. Though this initial vision took the shape of growing microgreens in a bedroom closet, we have evolved to serve healthy, prepared meals using local ingredients in New York City schools, offices, community centers, and anywhere else people are hungry. Our company is operated by a small group of folks building a new kind of food system, one that supports local supply chains, sustainable practices, and better wages for food workers.

Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie bakery was founded in Brooklyn in 2009 by sisters and pie makers Melissa Elsen and Emily Elsen. The sisters originally custom-baked pies in their Crown Heights, Brooklyn apartment before opening their first brick and morter retail location in Gowanus, Brooklyn in the Spring of 2010. The sisters have created a local enterprise in NYC that includes their original pie shop, a large scale production kitchen that serves as home base for their pastry team and administrative staff, and most recently, a ten seat pie counter and bar in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn that offers wine, locally brewed beer and other specialty beverages that pair with their signature pies.

EAC Limited got its start back in 2011 when our founder David Morris was forced out of a competitive snowboarding career due to injury. He decided to turn the passion and self-expression he felt in the sport towards apparel. It wasn't long before word got around and other businesses started coming to him for their apparel needs. Since then, David (along with his team) has evolved the company into a full-service merchandise machine. We've got you covered from conception to sale, and we're really fun to work with ;)

The Pickle Guys operate a pickle store on the Lower East Side. As far back as 1910 there have always been numerous pickle stores on Essex Street. Today we are the only pickle store that exists on Essex Street. We make our pickles from an old Eastern European recipe “Just the way mom use to make them”. This is a barrel cured pickle. The pickles are made by letting them sit in salt brine with garlic, spices, and no preservatives. Storing them in barrels, from a day up to six months, the pickles cure as they sit. The way we make these products here is just like the old days. We operate under the Rabbinical Supervision of RABBI SHMUEL FISHELIS.
