The spectacular Riverpark farm, one of the largest urban farms in New York City, provides fresh-cut produce to the Riverpark restaurant for anyone to enjoy. With its unique garden, view from the East River, and ever-changing menus, this is a destination that that shouldn’t be missed.

Farmer Zach Pickens explains the selection process after he had caught sight of some golden peas amongst a sea of green. Pickens says “If we can isolate the golden pea trait, after a few generations we may end up with some golden peas.”

Some garlic peeking out of the many different different milk cartons filled with hay. By using 10,000 square-foot of farm land with milk cartons, Riverside Park Restaurant is provided with a wide variety of homegrown ingredients.
