EAT DRINK ART DO GOOD

Welcome to our 2024 events. We are opening 2024 with the widely popular Tastes of Bed-Stuy in special memory of farm to table Bed-Stuy legend, Lloyd Porter. We then travel to Franklin Ave., Crown Heights on May 18 and Park Slope on Saturday, June 1st.

Thanks to everyone who came to Tastes of Carroll Gardens last fall.

We are incredibly grateful to all the chefs, restaurants, bars, bakeries, ice cream shops and boutiques who joined us throughout the pandemic and now. Let's continue supporting them!

Eat, sip and do good across Brooklyn, walking and exploring culinary gems at our Tastes of Brooklyn food and drink crawls.

Know that as you enjoy the exceptional culinary talent in Brooklyn, you are also supporting children creating healthier places to live and learn.

Eat. Drink. Walk. Art. Do Good.

Your purchases support our local businesses but they are also helping Seeds in the Middle expand school-run farm/flea markets, gardens and Hip2B Healthy cafes to erase food deserts in central Brooklyn. Vendors, independent chefs, more small biz welcome!

Our fundraising goal this year is to create a network of healthy options run by the people for the people in New York City's lowest income neighborhoods with the highest food insecurity and food inequity. In Bed-Stuy, this event will particularly support our new Lloyd Porter Culinary Apprenticeships, where young people led by local chefs learn the industry, develop job skills and actually apprentice at food establishments. We also want to serve all communities and schools asking for us to come so they can create own healthy businesses and learn fresh cooking skills while boosting academic achievement and student change-makers as well! See Seeds in the Middle's map here of where we are and who is asking for us.

Can't come, but want to support Seeds in the Middle's mission. Just donate here or even buy a $35 share of fresh produce on the ticket site! We can send you a donation letter. If you want to buy tickets or donate via Venmo or Cashapp, just click here for QR codes or call us at 862-701-3858.

Savor the entrepreneurial, delicious food and drink talent of historic, majestic neighborhoods. Pop-up flea market under development. Vendors, independent chefs, artists, email us at tastesofbrooklyn@gmail.com.

Be a culinary explorer again. Let's boost businesses and healthy kids together.
