A Neighborhood Joint

"To The World Farm"

A transplanted Angeleo, Skylar woke up last Saturday with a sore throat. Instead of the doctor she headed right to the juice bar at To the World Farm, a produce market combined with a juice bar catering to the healthy lifestyles of Williamsburg, Brooklyn since 1998.

“I got a shot of ginger and a grapefruit juice,” she says “I always come here if I am trying to be healthy, or if I start to feel ill, because I know it gives me the proper vitamins my immune system needs. And the low prices are a bonus!”

To the World Farm is a small local business described as “healthy and fresh with respectful workers,” by many Yelp reviewers, and “a place where you don’t have to swift through a pile of greens because they’re all that good.”

As you enter the store you are overcome with the smell of fresh fruits and flowers, as if you were walking through a garden. After picking out their items, a few customers walk through the wide aisles over to the juice bar to order their daily dose of vitamins from the store owner.

Owner Armando Chang, believes that the store stands out because “we have more access to the ingredients.”

While our customers were almost always young and hip, they’re being joined now buy older converts to juicing. “I think because they have realized the health benefits our juices provide,” Chang says.

Whether for a sore throat or other affliction, Chang recommends his most popular drink, The Green Juice, consisting of pineapple, cucumber, kale, spinach, and celery.
