"Farmer's Market in Park Slope is a great way to grocery shop and enjoy a day out! Produce is local, seasonal and fresh. It just doesn't get better than this!" - Anna Griniuk
"A smaller, neighborhood farmers market favored for seasonal produce — especially colorful sweet bell peppers and small hot 'cherry bomb' peppers — and for vendors who bring multiple herb varieties (lemon, Thai and Italian basil). Visitors describe it as manageable and less overwhelming than larger markets, making it a go-to spot for someone who wants a curated selection of summer vegetables to use in simple preparations like slowly cooked peperonata." - Ali Slagle
"The Grand Army Plaza market is nearly as well known as Union Square’s and is a notable alternative for market shopping." - Robert Sietsema
"Your best strategy at this huge, jam-packed Saturday market is to do a walk-through first. Check out all the stands to see who has the juiciest pears and apples that day (you can usually sample the fruit), and which fall root vegetables are calling your name (snowy parsnips! bulbous rutabaga! pink turnips!). Before you’re done, pick up heritage pork from Flying Pigs Farm and fragrant herbs from Lavender by the Bay. Extra time on your hands? Check out the Brooklyn Museum or take a walk in Prospect Park — both are just steps from the market." - Vox Creative
