Farm To People

We hosted our wedding at FTP two weeks and had a more wonderful time we could’ve ever imagined. The day truly exceeded our expectations. From the get go the event manager Rachel was a dream to work with. She is creative, organized, encouraging and realistic. Exactly the kind of person you want to be working with when planning a large and complicated event. We had an Indian American fusion wedding and she allowed us incorporate all the elements that were most important to us. Even as we threw twists and turns at her she took it in stride (for example we wanted to serve chai which isn’t typically on their menu, but instead of just telling us no like so many other venues/caterers would’ve, we found a creative solution that worked for all of us and were able to serve it). We created a custom menu with them that was all vegetarian and my goodness, it was genuinely incredible. On top of the custom menu, they worked with us to provide two different sets of custom dishes served out to a handful of guests with very specific dietary restrictions (one was gf/celiac safe, the other was for a traditional Jain diet). We have been getting endless compliments on how good all of the food was. It made life so much easier being able to work with a venue that could provide the space, the food, the bar package, the staff, the flowers, and even the tables and chairs (though you are also welcome to bring in your own if you prefer). They encourage you to decorate the space however you want but the venue is so inviting and beautiful that it hardly needs additional decor. Not only was Rachel a dream to work with but all the staff that worked our wedding were fantastic. We’ve heard from many guests that the warm and inviting nature of all the staff, and especially the bartenders, went a long way in helping create a wonderful atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend this venue more highly!!

I recently visited for one of the pop-up guest chef dining experiences with a group of six friends and we had a fantastic experience! The place was buzzing, and the decor is super beautiful like a little farm oasis in the heart of industrial Bushwick. The food was super delicious and had a ton of vegetarian and gluten-free options which was great for our group and we especially enjoyed the wine selection and natural wine selection, even though this is a little far out of the way from where we live in Manhattan, it is well worth a visit on the L train. I’ll definitely visit again this summer to take advantage of the spacious outdoor seating areas.
