Come Pedal the Sweetcycle – a stationary bike that uses pedal power to churn gelato.               While pedaling, Kate Zuckerman, pastry chef and owner of the Sweetcycle will explain the science, technique and history behind ice cream and gelato making. While the gelato chills, learn how to infuse flavor into the gelato base and what key ingredients make gelato smooth and creamy.                       Enjoy the fruits of your labor with a gelato tasting from our seasonal honey and herb infused gelato menu – Strawberry Rose, Blueberry Lavender, Peach Anise Hyssop, Honey-Rosemary Walnut and more.

Our workshops and events are available at a sliding scale. We invite you to practice economic solidarity with your community and choose the ticket tier that makes most sense with your financial situation.

  • This tier is at the market rate and reflects the true cost of the service, labor and expertise of producing the workshop/event. This price point allows us to generate a profit. We encourage those with access to wealth to opt for this tier as it enables Brooklyn Grange to offer more tickets at an accessible price.

  • This tier reflects the cost of our service labor and expertise required to produce the workshop/event and allows us to make a small profit. We encourage those to opt for a Sustainable Ticket if the price point of a General Ticket is prohibitive.

  • This ticket tier reflects our intention to make our events open for all! We want all members of our community to enjoy Brooklyn Grange no matter their financial situation. Opt for the Solidarity ticket if General or Sustainable is not accessible to you right now.
