As we sow, so will we reap.

We have so much to celebrate.
We are ALIVE and GROWING!

NJ Nonprofit Corporation Uptown Crew continues to develop programming that highlights the people, places and history of UPtown Jersey City.

Come join this very "growth oriented" evening of food and fun. You'll learn about what we do, our plans for the upcoming months and how you can help us keep the energy flowing throughout ALL of Jersey City. Bring your ideas and your appetite!

We are aiming to serve produce that is locally grown or sourced.
Can you help? If you garden, please bring something from your bounty to show and share! If you don't, please consider donating a beverage or dessert.

Representatives from the Journal Square CSA and Jersey City Food Coop will be available to talk about options for your access to healthful, fresh foods.

Music provided by the incomparable DJ Neva, and some creative surprises....

$10 admission.

Plus, we'll be raffling off beautiful, GREEN prizes!
