On the Grid : Jackson Heights Greenmarket

"Queen’s largest Farmer’s Market is in Jackson Heights every Sunday, year-round, from 8-3. It’s a busy, convivial scene and a good cross-section of the neighborhood. In addition to a great assortment of local vendors including Sawkill Farm, Hot Bread Kitchen, Ronnybrook, Consider Bardwell and Hudson Valley Duck, there is also textile recycling and composting services available. Located at Travers Park, this makes for a great family outing with kids. Oh and don’t leave without grabbing some fresh tamales from the vendors camped out at the entrance of 78th Street." - Diane Shaw
