ABOUT BROOKLYN GRANGE
Founded in 2010, Brooklyn Grange is the leading rooftop farming and intensive green roofing business in the US, operating the world’s largest rooftop soil farms, located in New York City. Brooklyn Grange promotes sustainable urban living by building green spaces, hosting educational programming and events, and widening access to locally grown produce in New York City communities.
Our three rooftop farms in Brooklyn and Queens span 5.6 acres and produce over 100,000 lbs of organically-grown vegetables per year. We sell our produce at farmers markets and through our sliding scale CSA program. Through our Equitable Distribution Program, we work with community based organizations to send 30%+ of our harvest to community members with limited access to wealth at no cost.

DESIGNING, BUILDING, & OPERATING GREEN SPACES IN NEW YORK CITY
From commercial green roofs to rooftop farms and residential spaces to greenwalls, we design, build, and maintain urban green scapes that are thoughtful, engaging, and innovative. Our clients range from private homes to corporate headquarters and organizations to low-income housing facilities.
HOSTING PUBLIC PROGRAMS & PRIVATE EVENTS
Every year, over 12,000 visitors come up to our farms. We host guests through our private events including weddings, dinners, corporate team retreats, and media launches. To engage the public in sustainable living and local ecology, we offer sliding-scale tickets to a number of workshops and events and invite guests to visit us at our open houses.
