Join us as we tour NYC's largest and most beloved farmers market: the Union Square Greenmarket.
We'll wander through the farm stands, sampling and shopping for local produce and farm-made products to fill our shopping baskets. Along the way, we'll discuss:

What is currently in season and at its peak of flavor

Tips for choosing the best produce
After 45 minutes of tasting and shopping, we'll head downtown via subway to our cooking school in SoHo where we'll prepare a full, seasonally-inspired lunch to enjoy together.
A typical menu consists of a local cheese + fruit platter (for nibbling on while we cook), a hearty seasonal vegetable and local grain dish, and fresh or roasted seasonal fruit served with local creme fraiche or homemade creme Anglaise. (Vegetarians can be easily accommodated.)
Home Cooking New York (HCNY) was founded in May 2002, shortly after founder Jennifer Clair was downsized from her Food Editor position at Martha Stewart Living.
After years of writing cookbooks, recipes, and food editorials, the opportunity to come together with eager culinary students in a kitchen classroom seemed like the next logical step.
Back then, Jennifer was the sole chef-instructor, teaching nightly private cooking classes in students’ home kitchens all over New York City. Over the last 17 years.
The company has grown to include 5 outstanding chef-instructors, all ready to be dispatched into the home kitchens of the (reasonably-distanced) tri-state area.
