Today's guest of Talk CNY presented by NBT Bank is Maarten Jacobs, director of Community Prosperity, Allyn Family Foundation and executive director, Syracuse Urban Partnership.
This is a story about the Salt City Market (SCM) in Syracuse, a market and food hall providing culinary options as diverse as our city. It was created by the Syracuse Urban Partnership, a project of the Allyn Family Foundation, with support from numerous community leaders. CenterState CEO's Up Start program provides SCM entrepreneurs and vendors with business trainings and one-on-one technical assistance. SCM is transforming Syracuse. It's all about food, culture, and enabling people to build generational wealth doing what they love.
In his role at the Allyn Family Foundation, Maarten Jacobs, MSW, is co-developing a Community Prosperity Initiative which aims to disrupt concentrated poverty in targeted Syracuse neighborhoods by empowering residents to fulfill their full potential, while contributing to the well-being of their families and the revitalization of their neighborhoods. Within this initiative, a strong focus is being placed on creating economic opportunities, economic empowerment, and vibrant neighborhoods where residents are empowered to transform their communities into the places where their families thrive. As part of his work as the Director of Community Prosperity, he is the acting executive director of the Syracuse Urban Partnership, a nonprofit organization created to build and operate the Salt City Market, a space for people to build generational wealth doing what they love. A space where everyone feels a sense of belonging, ownership and civic pride.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
