Edible Brooklyn has always fostered feasting on our foodshed, but the philosophy leaps off the page during our annual eat Drink Local Week.
As we kick off Eat Drink Local Week with our second annual Meet Your Maker, June 20th, take a step behind the scenes with a tour of one of four awesome local Brooklyn businesses: Brooklyn Brewery, Brooklyn Winery, NY Distilling Co. and Toby’s Estate Coffee–samples included! Then join us back at Brooklyn Brewery for beers, a GIANT SUB from the Brooklyn Kitchen and snacks from Acme Smoked Fish.
Eat Drink Local Week 2o12 is made possible with help from these businesses, each of which does its part to support local foodsheds.
