That's right kids!
Now you too will have the opportunity to rub elbows with the artisan elite of the the North East food scene all in a friendly bar setting in South Williamsburg.
Sasha Davies (formerly of Artesenal and Murray's Cheese) and I are putting on a who's who of local producers in the back yard of the East River Bar on S. 6th st.
Attendees are:
Mateo of Jasper Hill Creamery
Jessica Applestone of Fleischer's Grass Fed Meats
Gorilla Coffee
Consider Bardwell Farm
Sebastian of In Pursuit of Tea
Roger Repohl of Bronx honey fame
Jon from Wheelhouse Pickles
Taza Stone Ground Chocolate
And more!
The fun begins at 1 PM Sunday July, 8th and goes until the Bike Messenger Film Festival takes over the bar after dark.
Come and buy your favorite food producer a frosty beer. They deserve it!
Trust me people, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to meet and chat it up with the people who are changing the way we eat in NYC for the better.
Be there or get effed!

Not to be exclusionist but I basically invited all of the local food producers (i.e. makers of goods, cheese, honey, etc.) that I have been buying from for the past few years since I moved to NYC.
Sorry, but 1) I don't have a relationship with you and 2) you don't make a good that could be say, sold at a Farmer's market.
I hope you aren't offended but this isn't about pressing flesh and networking, it's about rounding up a community of people that are actually changing the way we eat and our relationship to the way food is produced.
It may seem a bit unGroceryGuy-like to wax so faux profound but, if there is one thing that I believe in and one thing that gets me up every morning, it is this small group who I have grown to love and respect. This day in July is for them.
ugh so much going on on sunday, but i'm hoping i can swing by. this looks great!
Nice. Will they be selling their goods? Or is this exclusively a meet and greet???
TY.
Yes, selling!
Buy Buy Buy!
