Bed Stuy Farmer's Market

Subject: Bed Stuy Farmer's Market

Just wanted to let those who may not know. Bed Stuy has a Farmer's Market Saturday AM on Lewis Ave in across from Brownstone Books/Breadstuy etc. This used to be on Fulton by the park but the new location has brought more produce.
Stopped by this AM and they have 3 stalls, it's not challenging Grand Army Plaza yet but they have a good selection and are very friendly/

People of Bed Stuy please support this initiative, come out Saturday to buy your vegetables!

thx

Coming soon to East New York - which has no board of it's own - a Food Coop. The Park Slope Food Coop has been consulting, and some PSFC members are doing shifts to help get the place up and running.

wow! that's awesome!

All year round?

It sounds like a great start.

Is the farmer's market year-round?

The market is indeed getting better. I was there last weekend and in addition to the produce one of the tables was selling fresh apple cider and baguettes! I think it's great that vendors are taking a chance and trying new things. Hopefully next year will get even better. I believe the market continues through November.

I was also there last weekend, and one of the vendors said they would be there year round! They were selling produce in addition to nice potted mums.
