As the temperatures warm up and city dwellers start longing to get out of the concrete jungle, Nordstrom is teaming with Sky High Farm Workwear for its latest pop-up shop.
Sky High Farm Workwear was founded by artist Dan Colen and Daphne Seybold, formerly of Comme des Garçons and Dover Street Market, in 2022 to support Sky High Farm, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to increasing access to fresh, locally produced food. Its mission is supported by the funds raised through a number of limited-edition apparel drops.
Since its founding, Sky High Farm, which is based in Ancramdale, New York, has donated more than 100,000 pounds of vegetables and 65,000 pounds of animal protein to food access organizations around New York State.

The Workwear@Nordstrom shop, which opens Thursday at the retailer’s New York store, will feature special collaborations from Sky High Farm Workwear’s contributing artistic director and photographer Quil Lemons, Ally Bo, Dickies, Converse and other brands that have worked with the team to reimagine vintage pieces. The assortment will include matching denim sets, sweatsuits, embroidered shirts, knitwear, worker boots and sneakers.
The shop and the collection, which will also be offered on the retailer’s website, will remain through May 7.
