The New School and the editors of Edible Manhattan and Edible Brooklyn welcome you as we kick of Eat Drink Local Week, a participatory celebration of local bounty organized by Edible magazines and GrowNYC that runs September 26 to October 6. And, because we hope Eat Drink Local will expand your mind, and not just your waistband, we’ve assembled four panel discussions – inspired partly by content in issues of Edible – that feature the food makers, journalists, activists, and locavores who make Gotham’s food culture.
Is the golden era of authentic eats behind us, or just taking root? As boutiques push the city knish toward extinction, horchata popsicles, hipster picklers and taco trucks sprout like sidewalk wildflowers. Old school LES costermongers and next-generation entrepreneurs debate what’s vanishing – and what’s blossoming.

Taking matters into your own hands. How the DIY phenomenon has brought about an urban renaissance of everything from home canning and sold-out butchery classes to basement-cured bacon and rooftop bees.
