Wen-Jay is the founder and Boss at Local Roots NYC, a small business that has revolutionized the way New Yorkers shop for food. The idea is to Subscribe online for 3 months of food that comes direct from a farm within 2 hours of NYC. Pick up at a neighborhood bar, cafe or have it delivered. It's a customized farmers market brought right to you.
