This Saturday in Manhattan, I’ll be speaking at a Plovgh event in partnership with the Our Global Kitchen: Food, Nature, Culture exhibit now at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) and Jimmy’s No. 43. The event is about the history, development and current state of agriculture, from farm to table.
I’m happy to be involved with Plovgh and Jimmy’s on this event. Plovgh is an online farmer’s market run by my friend Lizzy McVay Greene and I have worked with them in the past for sourcing local ingredients for some of my cooking classes. Jimmy’s No. 43 is where I hosted my South Indian Harvest & Cider Dinner last year.
The event starts uptown with a tour of the AMNH Global Kitchen exhibit, which looks really cool. Here’s a video on it and you can visit the site to learn more about it.
The second part of the event is in the East Village at Jimmy’s No. 43, where a discussion will take place between farmers, distributors and people who prepare food (me!). We’ll be talking about the AMNH exhibit and how we see our part playing out with the current state of agriculture. In the work that I’ve been doing, I think a lot about the history of Indian cooking traditions and in my everyday am considering what types of agriculture I have available to me so I’m looking forward to sharing my perspective and learning about what others think on the topic.
