Exciting news for all who love fresh, locally grown vegetables: Brooklyn Grange, an acre rooftop farm in Astoria, has opened two Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) locations as well as two farm stands. The Astoria farm stands operate Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3 - 7 PM in the lobby of the Standard Motor Building at 37-18 Northern Blvd near 37th Street, Queens. You can even visit the roof farm! Another farm stand is located at Vesta on Saturday from 11 AM - 3 PM at 2102 30th Avenue, Astoria, NY. Vegetables at these stands are picked and sold on the very same day. Can't get fresher than that!
