Last Thursday, DBP hosted the Make It In Brooklyn Ag Tech Pitch Contest, and witnessed the future of agricultural technology in the making. 🌱🚜

Five ag tech startups, five judges, and a packed room came together at @golfzon_social. Each startup founder brought bold ideas and ambitious visions. 💡

After careful deliberation of the judges, @cocoafiber was announced winner with its idea of transforming cocoa pod into biodegradable fibers and climate-forward materials. It was awarded the $5,000 grand prize to fuel what’s next. 👏🏆

Big thanks to our partner @nyutandon, our incredible judges, the standout finalists, and everyone who showed up!

Still chilly in Downtown Brooklyn? Here are 4 cups of hot chocolate that’ll carry you through the last stretch of winter.

☕ Cafe d’Avignon @cafedavignon
Rich and classic. Served both in the center of DeKalb Market Hall and at the street-level entrance of City Point, this could be your go-to spot if you’re looking to stay warm indoors with a perfectly balanced cup.

☕ White Noise Coffee @whitenoisecoffeeco
Delicate and balanced, with both black and white chocolate options. Beyond hot chocolate, White Noise also serves exceptional coffee and offers a curated selection of coffee beans from around the world.

☕ Tio Pio @tiopiowillou
Affordable and old-school. A no-frills neighborhood essential owned by Ecuadorian immigrants, Tio Pio also serves a wide range of American and Latino comfort foods — the kind of place that feels like home.

☕ Junior’s Restaurant & Bakery @juniorscheesecake
Sweet and nostalgic, just like the cheesecake the spot is famous for. Their hot chocolate comes topped with a generous pile of whipped cream. A legendary Brooklyn institution you simply can’t miss.
