Combining the rustic seasonality of a working farm with an unbeatable rooftop location, our 1.5-acre Brooklyn Navy Yard farm is the perfect setting for a wedding. Guests are greeted by panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline and East River waterfront as they follow winding paths between fields of seasonal crops to the main event. A large, paved, deck in the center of our rooftop farm is perfect for a welcoming bar setup, cocktail-style mingling, and seated dining. This patio is covered by a weatherproof awning for rain protection and strung with elegant, dimmable Edison bulb string lights.
We believe that soil-based urban agriculture has the capacity to create the green spaces that cities sorely need, and repair the severed ties between those who live in cities and the natural world. We want farming to become a thriving and viable industry in cities, and we believe that by practicing urban agriculture as a fiscally sustainable business, we can prove that it is worthy of investment. We also believe that any good business serves its community and it's ecosystem, which means we are always thinking about how we can have a more positive social and ecological impact on our city!
