brooklyn indie market

my table at the brooklyn indie market last week was a huge success, not only did i sell out of every package of beef jerky, but i also made some incredible contacts. even the vegetarians couldn't resist snapping up a few packages (albeit for the meat eaters in their family, but still). we'll definitely be returning to the market in the future with even more flavors. we've also had a few requests for t-shirts, so keep your eyes peeled for those in the not-too-distant future.

bringing jerky to carroll gardens

this sunday (today!) i will be bringing two new beef jerky flavors to the brooklyn indie market in carroll gardens [map]. this local staple has been bringing you independent makers of all sorts for the past four years – from jewelry to handicraft, they are dedicated to highlighting rising makers from all disciplines.
just take the g or f to carroll street and look for the red and white striped tent. i will have two flavor options today.
