Bring food, made with as many locally-sourced ingredients as you can find, that won't melt in the heat. Bring chairs, blankets and bathing suits for kids. Coolers will be available, but space is limited. Bring your own utensils and dishes.
Musicians are welcome.
Featured kids’ activities include balloon toss, tug-of-war, and kickball.
The event also highlights the New York State Locavore Challenge to eat only locally and sustainably produced food during the month of September. A prize will be awarded for Most Local Dish of the day.
The co-op now has over 300 member/owners and is working to recruit more. If you're interested in joining, the co-op hosts information sessions at the Bay Ridge Library at 73rd St and Ridge Blvd at 6:30 PM on the 1st Thursday of every month, as well as on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 10:30 AM.
Visit the co-op on Facebook, Twitter or Meetup.
