Sustainably conscious food and musicians will come together at Union Pool in Brooklyn on Sunday afternoon in a benefit for the Greenpoint-Williamsburg CSA’s Low Income Fund. Spreading the word about community-supported agriculture will be performers Mia Riddle, Pearl and the Beard, and the Madison Square Gardeners while everyone munches away on artisanal food from Bakesalery, the Brooklyn Salsa Company, Cheshire Canning, the DP Chutney Collective, Sour Puss Pickles, and Los Rebeldes Mexican Home Cooking. Billing itself as a “partnership of mutual commitment between a farm and a community of supporters,” the GWCSA is always looking for new members, who will be “buying into a direct link with the food you eat.” Suggested admission is $12, and you’ll feel so good about yourself if you go.
