Hotline Production Commis Chef

Green Top Farms was founded by a farmer-turned-public-school-teacher who was troubled by the lack of fresh nutritious foods for many New York families. For over ten years we have built a high volume food service catering and delivery business. Throughout that time we have remained deeply involved in working to provide better food resources and education for school children food pantries and the broader community. We have also pursued our vision for a more sustainable and equitable food system. We spent the majority of our energies during the COVID Pandemic serving NYC City Agencies in the provision of food for the underserved as well as non-profit agencies throughout NYC.

Our mission is to build a more sustainable and equitable food system starting by reconnecting consumers and local farmers. We believe the results of strengthening that connection are better nutrition more tasty food greater social justice and reduced environmental impacts. Our menus reflect this attention to bringing nutritious delicious food to those who need it most.
