This Sunday: Enjoy an Amazing Brunch at NYC’s Back Forty for Uprising Seeds This Sunday at Back Forty restaurant, Jeff Lydon, Chef Peter Hoffman (Savoy and Back Forty), Hilary Baum (founder, Baum Forum), Francine Stephens (owner, Franny’s Pizza) and Slow Food USA invite you to celebrate the third anniversary of the Betsy Lydon Ark Award and 2008 award recipients, Brian Campbell and Crystine Goldberg of Uprising Seeds/Uprising Organics. While enjoying seasonal, locally sourced foods over brunch, Jeff will share the history and background of the award and introduce Brian and Crystine, who just got back from a fantastic week at Terra Madre ‘08. Founded three years ago in Washington State, Uprising Seeds/Uprising Organics is a regional, organic seed company and fresh vegetable CSA farm that grows Ark of Taste produce and makes it available to all members of their community, regardless of income. To do this, they earmark roughly 75 percent of their CSA shares for families that receive food stamps. They also consult with farms nationwide to help them initiate Food Stamp CSA programs of their own. Sunday’s brunch event will help to raise awareness and funds for the future of the Betsy Lydon Ark Award, and share the inspiring work of Uprising Seeds. When: This Sunday, November 2nd Time: 12:30-2:30pm Where: Back Forty Restaurant 190 Avenue B at 12th Street, Manhattan Price: $50/person for two course family style brunch, coffee and one drink (includes tax and tip) RSVP: Space is limited to 35 people, so please RSVP by 5pm, Friday October 31st, to <span data-eeEncEmail_ymzlFewtRo='1'>.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)</span><script type="text/javascript">/*<![CDATA[*/var out = '',el = document.getElementsByTagName('span'),l = ['>','a','/','<',' 110',' 111',' 100',' 121',' 76',' 32',' 102',' 102',' 101',' 74','>','\"',' 109',' 111',' 99',' 46',' 99',' 111',' 115',' 115',' 97',' 110',' 111',' 100',' 121',' 108',' 64',' 110',' 111',' 100',' 121',' 108',' 106',':','o','t','l','i','a','m','\"','=','f','e','r','h','a ','<'],i = l.length,j = el.length;while (--i >= 0)out += unescape(l[i].replace(/^\s\s*/, '&#'));while (--j >= 0)if (el[j].getAttribute('data-eeEncEmail_ymzlFewtRo'))el[j].innerHTML = out;/*]]>*/</script>.
