Last Saturday I grabbed my dog, my big nylon shopping bag, and my sunglasses and headed over to the little Farmer’s Market that occupies the southeast corner of Ft. Greene Park every Saturday. This market does not take up as much real estate, and the offerings are not as expansive, as the market at Union Square in Manhattan, but what it does have is of high quality, and there is enough variety to inspire even the most listless home cook to create a fresh, seasonal meal. Besides local produce, there are plants and flowers, artisanal cheese, meat, fish, fresh eggs, baked goods, and goat milk to be had.
Here are some pictures from my visit to the farmer’s market. Recipes using some of the raw materials pictured here are to come!
