Safiya has always loved farmers markets, and makes it a point to discover a market wherever she may find herself stationed in the world. Though this city dweller has absolutely no farming background, her eating background is quite extensive. She can’t wait for plums! Her time in the food service industry and shopping the markets looking for the tastiest vittles has prepared her for a season promoting local eating in her East Harlem/Upper East Side community. The infamous ditty once piped that “Everybody Eats,” and farmers markets are sacred little pockets of humanity that come together for sustenance. The tradition of markets is strong all around the world and across all cultures, and seeing it culminate in the richness of New York City is truly inspiring for Safiya.

A New York native, Jessi Erian Colon was raised in Brooklyn and now resides in midtown Manhattan. Her exposure to healthy consumption began with her mother, the neighborhood health food store, and the Brooklyn Borough Hall Greenmarket. After working with Bobolink Dairy at Union Square, she decided she needed even more Greenmarket in her life, leading her to pursue this exciting managerial position. Jessi is honored to be working with the Greenmarket team, and hopes that her work will contribute to health and wealth of her community and the earth. When she isn't at the market, she can be found dancing around the city, or working towards New York's animals living better lives.

Vincent Goble hails from the land of apple orchards, vineyards, redwood trees, and jagged sea cliffs commonly referred to in those parts as West County, but more widely, it is unknown how widely, as Sebastopol. As a boy he sold Gravenstein Apples at the farmer's market, endeavored in all things gymnastic, and traveled National Parks. He attended the University of California at Santa Barbara where he earned a liberal arts degree while studying in Chile and China. New York for him is an unending ocean of quirks, gimmicks, opportunities and human truth. What truths is yet unknown to him; perhaps a delicious bite of apple, the mouth-watering scent of a cooking demonstration, an EBT sign waving in the wind, or a market-goer will be the catalyst.
