Another thing I love about this neighborhood! Unlike other farmers markets in the city this one is year round. So it's awesome for getting seasonal fresh produce, fresh seafood, and all sorts of other market goodies.
Jackson Heights geenmarket is a great place to spend a Sunday afternoon . located on the corner of 34rg Ave and 78th St., it's nicely tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Jackson Heights.
The market is open throughout the year and offers a wide selection of seasonal produce, eggs, dairy, meats, breads and bee products.
Thought it's on the smaller side, there is an incredible assortment of goods and the prices are fairly low, especially call compared to some of the other markets in the area.
My favorite offerings include the honey, cheese and apples (hello samples!)
This farmer's market is sprawling during the summer! I was a little taken aback by how sprawling and lively it was, because when I was apartment hunting in the wee early months of 2014, I saw three tables with food and some trucks. Okay.
The vegetables here are FRESH. So much you want to slap the person selling them to you. I've gotten broccoli and carrots here, and they're superior than even the overpriced share you'd get at a Whole Foods. This is why shopping local is important. The fruits are a little on the pricy side, with good reason.
So happy to live right near a farmer's market. So happy for zucchini cake (I call it bread to make it seem less decadent and more healthy) I can buy on Sundays.
I head over to greenmarket at least once a month to get milk and yogurt. There's isn't a huge variety of products to choose from especially since we always manage to get there when they're about to close.
I do like their blueberry pies and the prices are pretty good for the size.
Although it's not very big*, this Greenmarket is great to have in the neighborhood!
I enjoy the walk here on Sunday mornings to peruse the offerings of the week, and usually can't resist picking up something from Hot Bread Kitchen. (HELLO Chocolate Cherry Bread!)
Prices at the vendors can sometimes be on the spendier side, but I suppose it's worth it for the quality and the cause.
Props to them for having environmental initiatives like providing textiles recycling, rechargeable battery recycling, and food scrap composting drop-offs!

*They have longer hours and more vendors in the summer months.
Awesome variety and great prices. Cheaper than Union square and and much easier to get parking. I picked up some fresh carrots for $2.50 a bunch. That is cheaper than Fairways and my local market. Today they had some food vendors and th best one was the lady with the grilled Mexican corn on corner of 78th Ave and 34th Ave. The corn was devoured by my daughter and at $2.50 it's CHEAP!
Looking to come back regularly!
great selection. fresh local produce, meats and cheeses. get there early as it can get crowded. Cash and EBT cards accepted. Makes for a great Sunday morning outing.
I love this place. Here is where I buy yogurt and milk. I also get organic eggs here as well as fresh loaves of whole wheat bread here. I love the DiPaola turkey sausage. It is great for breakfast/brunch at home. Sometimes, when I am feeling adventurous, I get the knishes. 🙂 I like this one stand in the front that has millions of hot pockets of eggplant and medallions of pizza-like toppings, the frosting covered almond danishes and coffee crumb cake. I feel torn staring at the myriad of sugary options to fill my tummy for the week. Sometimes, through sheer will power, I walk away and just dream of stuffing myself silly with their chocolate cookies and blueberry and apple pies. As I walk further inside, I spy jam or jelly? Blueberry, blackberry, grape, all kinds. I should mention that I saw some righteous veggies that I never tried or heard of. Kohlrabi? Someday. Purple carrots. Just you wait. Quinze? I will eat you!
