ABOUT ROOF STOOP SUNDAYS:

Our Roof Stoop series celebrates the bounty of the growing season, highlights the deep talent of local New York chefs, and directly supports 1:1 Foods’ and Brooklyn Grange’s community-based food justice work. 

Every other Sunday, the culinary team at 1:1 Foods collaborates with an incredible line up of chef comrades, delivering menus that draw on their personal inspirations and feature the freshest produce — much grown literally steps away from the kitchen on the Grange’s Sunset Park farm. The vibe is casual and the food is exceptional. Come explore the farm and feast with us — all for a good cause.
