Robert Deschak is a Core Member of the New York City Beekeepers Association, a group of beekeepers, bee enthusiasts, and honey lovers who live, work and pollinate in New York City. NYCBA was central to overturning the policy that had banned beekeeping in the city. Mr. Deschak is a Core Member of the group and helps run the monthly meetings, organizes special events, and has his own hives atop a convent in the Bronx. Rodger Phillips is the Hartford Food System's (HFS) urban farmer. Grow Hartford, a project of HFS, harvests thousands of pounds of organic fruits and vegetables at three different sites in Hartford.
