NUMBER ONE HUNDRED & TWENTY SIX.
December07

So, until today I only knew of one Annie Novak. She’s marrying my friend Benjamin, in Maine this coming April and I’m pretty excited about the whole thing. But that said, this post isn’t about that Annie Novak. She’ll be Annie Krebs in a few months anyhow. Nope, the Annie Novak I discovered today is a different woman all together.

See, this Annie’s the urban farmer behind Eagle Street Rooftop Farm in Brooklyn NYC. Ya know, that place that has over thirty varieties of veggies, a working compost system, chickens, rabbits and bee hives all just chillin’ on a roof that looks out across the East River to the Manhattan Skyline. No biggie. As Annie puts it, the farm is a culmination of ‘bravery, curiosity, innovation and hard work’, and if you ask me, is bringing new meaning to urban environmental living.
