Just Food's Podcast

Jimmy Carbone, owner of the East Village bar Jimmy's No.43, has been a long time supporter of the local food movement. Incorporating his family's tradition of using fresh ingredients, Jimmy's No.43 uses the organic ingredients from local farmers around New York City. His bar, which also serves handcrafted beer on draught, has become a community space over the years. On any night of the week, the back room at Jimmy's No.43 is used for a variety of events; from a CSA drop off to a fund raising event, or a farmer meet and greet to a musical performance.

This month's podcast includes music from Lee Rosevere, Eskalators, and El Jugador.

Sang Lee Farms is a second generation family farm originally growing produce for the Asian markets in New York and along the east coast.

Over the last fifteen years the farm has shifted its focus to retail, farmers' markets and CSA. In doing so it has added many new specialty vegetable and herb products, including heirloom tomatoes, multicolored carrots, asparagus, potatoes and garlic.

This podcast features an interview with Farmer Fred Lee of Sang Lee Farms.
