Greene Grape Provisions

Profile

At their Fort Greene wineshop Greene Grape, partners Amy Bennett and Jason Richelson specialize in small producers and �handcrafted� wine. In a canny attempt to fulfill the rest of your dinner-table needs, they’ve opened Greene Grape Provisions, a gourmet grocery up the block. Here, as in many of the borough’s new breed of ecofriendly, regionally stocked mini-marts, the catchphrase is �organic, natural, and local where possible,� according to Bennett, who plans to apply the philosophy to all the basics: produce, cheese, Balthazar pastries, Wild Edibles fish, and sustainably raised beef and chicken from upstate New York. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld
