Welcome to the Garden State Market Today, Chef JJ met with Ellen Haddigan and Musa Durgun at their produce store located at 77 South Dean Street in Englewood, NJ. They discussed several creative ways for us to collaborate on the Kids Love Cooking with Chef JJ TV program.
Kids Love Free Produce Some of the ideas shared with us were a Garden State Market/Kids Love Cooking with Chef JJ branded produce truck that travels to urban communities and schools in NYC to give away free fruits & vegetables.
Who Wants To Be A Vegan? Another idea centered around a Vegan episode with Russell Simmons' assistant Simone Reyes and celebrity activist Suzanne Africa Engo, daughter of late United Nations Ambassador Paul Engo; and an on-premise cooking episode at The Society of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center with Chef JJ and our Broadway Stars.
These we're all brilliant show ideas proposed by Ellen, who might have just earned herself a Producer title to add with her current Executive Director role at the MSKCC organization.
We're 100% sold on partnering with the Garden State Market founders. Now we just have to put our creative minds together to seek out the right financial relationships to help bring our ideas to fruition. :-)
