Greenmarkets, starting with local one at Kips Bay Plaza

Posted on 16:56 by Unknown
Our local Sunday Greenmarket is still operating ( as shown in this video) after some contretemps that followed ambitious expansion plans that got nixed at the last minute..

We have discussed Greenmarkets in Manhattan before, but I am looking for an update on what is happening now...

Yelp has a list with links to reviews of Greenmarkets in Manhattan...

This really has to be updated by it seems to me we have reached a kind of stasis with the Greenmarket business right now, and people are adjusting to the changes in their neighborhoods as they happened ( for instance, last year the Union Square Greenmarket was reorganized... ) 

And as I said there have been ups and downs with the Kips Bay (listed here as Murray Hill) market that you have to look for in community papers to find out about... 

I would just refer you to the website of Grow NYC to find a list of why the local markets are important

    Its the second year the market has come to the Murray Hill neighborhood and frankly its still childlike.  There's an assortment of vintage jewelry and chachkies, so if you're into the stuff…

    It was strange in the greenmarket today, quiet without the verbal hangover of the bellowing voice of joe ades, the renowned carrot-peeler guy, who died last week. No longer able to act as the…
