Applewood

applewood is housed on the ground floor of a turn-of-the-century Brooklyn storefront. Our daily-changing menu and seasonal cocktails showcase our devotion to sustainably grown, local products. David and Laura Shea have made applewood a departure from almost all other restaurants with their complete devotion to supporting local farmers, their exclusive use of hormone- and antibiotic-free meats and poultry, as well as wild fish, and their on-site butchering of whole animals including lamb, goat, deer, and pigs (to name a few).

    Only 64 hours left! There’s no way we’re gonna hit our funding goal, but we’ve raised a good amount toward the farm. Every donation has helped us establish applewood farm and gotten us that much closer to bringing sustainably-raised, locally-grown foods back to you. Thank you for your help so far! Please help us make a final countdown effort before this thing is over for good. LOCAL FOOD ROCKS!

    With only 15 days left to go, we are slightly over halfway to our goal! Warm, delicious, sloppy-kissy thanks to all who have donated or have hit the ”like” button on the Indiegogo page. You have all helped us toward our goal of bringing even more fresh, local, sustainably-produced food to our collective dinner tables. Please check us out, if you haven’t, and tell your friends! Thank you!
