Open Sunday Market, 6/24
A few weeks ago we received a treat from our friends the Battery Park Urban Farm: to come meet our new alarm clock, join us on Sunday at our open market. We’re growing basil Spike Lee gave us, radishes that take a weekly harvest trip down to Rockaway Taco, and the sunflowers are stretching high towards the solstice sky. We look forward to sharing our last harvest of salad greens with you before the heat of summer takes them out!
Thanksgiving Market
Last Market!
A beautiful finale to a great year: (most of) the Eagle Street Rooftop Farm crew from 2011. Thanks to all the hands and greenthumbs that helped us grow this year–see you all at our Thanksgiving Market on 11/20, and have a beautiful fall-and-winter!

OPEN! Sunday, October 30th
Sunday, October 30th: we’re open!
Come up to our market, 10am-4pm, to enjoy the hot peppers, kale, radishes, salad greens, fresh herbs and more that we’ve harvested fresh from out under the surprise snowstorm!
We’re cleaning up for wintertime–preparing the chickens, emptying out the compost–lend a hand and green your thumb!
Sunday, October 30th: Last Market until Thanksgiving!
This Sunday from 10am-4pm is our last market and volunteer day until Sunday, November 2oth (our pre-Thanksgiving market). Join us on the rooftop for a sowing of the cover crops, moving the chicken coop, finishing up the compost application from a season’s worth of gathering food scraps, and at 2pm, a free conversation reviewing all the ups and downs of 2011’s growing season. It’s almost Halloween: come in costume to receive a special treat!
This Sunday Market, Photoextravaganza!
Memories! Preserve them in photos, as we preserve our peppers in hot sauce. This Sunday, our 10am-4pm market is special-guested by Third Ward’s photo safari program. Sign up for the 2-5p class here.
Rockaway Taco at Eagle Street Rooftop Farm
Get your tickets now! It’s an online RSVP only. Market is closing at 3pm sharp to make way for taco-eaters. Your donations are headed for our hurricane-struck farm friends upstate.
Sunday Market October 9th
Hot peppers, how we love ye. The sweet flesh, the sharp bite, the deliciously high nutrient content of a deeply healthy food. Oh, and the colors match what the world is about to do to celebrate fall.
Join us this Sunday during our farm market and open day as we clean up tomatoes, sow clover, and pick peppers while not rubbing our eyes. It’s not quite the end of tshirt season, so get your Rooftop Farm shirt on before the holiday season shops them all away!
How sweet it is! This weekend’s events.
This Saturday and Sunday are full of places to go and food to taste! Your farmers will be serving up tasty treats with the first annual New York Honey Festival in the Rockaways on Saturday, and then Saturday night we’re boogey-ing back to Brooklyn to The Good Festival for a 9pm cooking demo between live music sets. On Sunday, we’ll be on deck to serve up more treats (and teach you how to pot up the plants to grow them!) at Taste Williamsburg-Greenpoint. Don’t worry: our Sunday market will be open from 10-4 as usual this Sunday, as well, so you can still get your favorite ingredients for your own cooking, as well as pitch in as we sow our fall crops.
