Stewart at the Market

Stewart Borowsky

Stewart the Farmer is one of the original urban farmers in New York City. He has been growing and selling the freshest wheatgrass and micro-greens for over 30-years. His latest farm, in shipping containers in Brooklyn, is fiercely patrolled by his cat Izzy.

Izzy the Cat

Izzy the Cat has been the Grassman's supervisor since he was a tiny 6-month old kitten. He mostly approves of his staff's performance, although he would appreciate a few more chin scratches and many more pigeons to chase.
