Village Voice Votes Sixth Street CSA Best in NYC!

The Village Voice has chosen Sixth Street as the Best CSA Share for their Best of NYC 2016 list!  With over 100 CSAs in New York City, this is a real honor.

Tremendous credit goes to our CSA farmers, Amy Hepworth and Gerry Greco of Hepworth Farms, and to our awesome CSA members!

"Of all the city's CSAs, the 6th Street Community Center's wins the title for both variety and generosity of produce, with a weekly bounty so large it's possible to split the harvest three ways. In addition to providing members with access to high-quality, fresh, organic produce grown locally by farmers in the region, CSA Partnership farms also supply local produce to youth programs and neighborhood schools for use in nutrition and food preparation workshops. Anyone in New York is eligible for the CSA program, whether an East Village resident or not, and fees operate on a sliding scale based on household income. You pay for the season's harvest up front, and then show up to the center for CSA pickups on Tuesdays from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. to collect your bounty. Housed in a former synagogue with a beautiful façade displaying a colorful CITYarts mural and stained-glass windows, the center is inviting enough for a return trip to try the café or one of the many wellness classes on offer. As a bonus, your membership supports the community center, which has been an East Village stronghold since 1978.
