<P><SPAN STYLE="font-size: small; font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino;">Andrew is widely recognized for pioneering the artisanal food movement in Brooklyn with his collection of acclaimed restaurants, which focus on sustainable, seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. In 1999, Andrew opened his first restaurant, Diner, which serves locally-sourced, New American food in the industrial neighborhood of South Williamsburg. Other culinary ventures include the Wythe Hotel and its restaurant Reynard, Marlow & Sons, a restaurant and general store, Marlow & Daughters in Williamsburg, a butcher shop specializing in locally sourced grass-fed meat and house-made sausages; and Roman's in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, an Italian-inspired restaurant with a three-course menu that changes daily. Most recently, Andrew opened Achilles Heel, a bar and caf in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and launched She Wolf Bakery - making the bread that has been served at his restaurants since 2009 available for purchase to the public for the first time.</SPAN></P>

This includes building and preserving school gardens, offering cooking classes, sponsoring field trips, and operating student-run "farmstands," all of which increase awareness of the importance of local, seasonal and quality food to one's health. The program impacts the lives of over 1,500 New York City school children. Urban Harvest has also created and runs a seed-to-plate, healthy eating educational garden program in East New York, which reaches over 150 children and community members every summer.</SPAN></P>
