Selection is really awful. Went today, June 13, and literally the only fruit was apples (mostly…read morefrom last year's harvest). No berries or other fruit. Also, mostly greens. No asparagus, no corn, no broccoli. I got a $6 tomato and left. Will not be back. This market is the closest one to me, but I'll go to Grand Army Plaza instead.

I have two basic bones to pick with this famers' market. The first they can't really do a lot…read moreabout--the geography. Situated along narrow and cobblestone streets on the blocks around Ft. Greene Park, it is frustratingly crowded and sometimes just not easy to walk around and navigate. I realize they probably don't have other options, but it nonetheless discourages attendance or makes me rush through to get out of dodge as quickly as possible. The other nuisance I feel like they could have some control over, and that is how short the hours are/how early the market closes. I swing by around 12-1pm and most of the stands are closed or closing up. I lived for years near the two park slope/prospect heights markets and felt like you could still stroll in at 2-3 to a still-thriving scene (and more comfortably stroll!). There are a lot of great vendors and quality produce here for you once you wade through the crowds--lots of fresh fruit and veggies of course, but also cheesemongers, shops selling meat, charcuterie, bread, mushrooms... quite she smorgasbord. it ultimately feels a bit petty and silly to complain at all about having a nice farmers' market nearby.--I am ultimately grateful this spot is within walking distance of my home. But it feels like it could be a much better experience for shoppers--like it's just slapped together without much care for visitors' experience, particularly when compared to other city farmers' markets I have experienced.

This Greenmarket is a regular on Sundays in Carroll Gardens. As my previous review mentioned, they…read moredon't have many stands and they close too darn early compared to others. Their produce is fresh albeit pricey but farm to table and pesticide free is always the draw at these greenmarkets. From a bread stand and a variety of veggies to fruit, eggs and a fresh turkey stand, there's a good selection. I'm still a fan.

Oh, how times have changed since 2011. Actually, they haven't changed that much,* but they've…read morechanged enough that I couldn't let you go on without an update. (Because I care about you, dear reader.) This farmer's market is still a pretty good one. Unfortunately, we've lost Grazin' Angus (although, I'm told I should eat less red meat) and Divine Pickles (I miss those wasabi pickles), but there's still plenty of produce for you. All the tomatoes, greens, beans, nuts, mushrooms, cheese, eggs, flowers and other plants you'd ever want are here for the buying. You can also still grab: Tasty turkey sausage/burgers (and other items) from DiPaolo's. Crusty ciabatta (and other items) from Bread Alone. Whole chickens, primed for roasting. Duck bacon and/or rillettes. Burpless cucumbers. Overall, I've been happy with just about every purchase I've made here over the past few years. There was that one time that I bought an heirloom tomato that got crushed in the bag under other, heavier stuff, and leaked juice all over everything...I was sad about that. Then my cat decided to attack the other, $3 tomato as it sat in our fruit bowl. That was also disappointing, but he's a known asshole and we should've expected it. Anyway, what hasn't changed in the past half decade or so is that I think you should come here and buy delicious items from the vendors. Because the more you support the market, the more awesome vendors will show up. Therefore, by spending money here, you will really be increasing my quality of life. Sure, it'll be good for the whole neighborhood and the food industry in general, but let's be honest: I'm the one that really matters. ____________ *On the Carroll Gardens Greenmarket front. Lots of other things have changed, but this doesn't seem like the proper place to get into it.

They have plenty of fresh vegetable options as well as breads, scones, olive oil, soaps, fresh pasta, seafood, meat, etc. It was easy to find parking when I went around 2pm on Sunday afternoon & although I didn't venture further into the park it seemed like a nice place to relax.

I got this excellent habanero tomato jam, a passionfruit hard seltzer beverage, a sparkling apple wine, and fruits here and all were of excellent quality or taste.

I do not recommend this company, and strongly suggest that anyone looking to buy fresh local…read moreproduce seek other avenues, or buy from an actual CSA that does not take a big cut from farmers. Their customer service is awful: 1- Local Roots just changed my pickup point 48 hours before. The options they gave me is to go pickup produce far away (and risk infection with COVID at 35 weeks pregnant), or pay them 15$/week for delivery. They changed the terms of my subscription out of the blue. Now my choice is to incur in significant expenses, pause my subscription (at a cost of 5 dollars per week to me due to LR's negligence), or risk my health. They did not offer alternate arrangements, a refund, or even an apology. 2- During Isaiah, Local Roots decided to continue operations as normally despite the fact that the storm was forecast. The driver had an accident on the road in the middle of the storm, and the produce was late. We were informed 45 minutes after deliveries were supposed to start. We waited outside, post-storm, for an hour. The company put its workers and customers at risk. Local Roots offered no compensation, let alone an apology. Stay away from this company, unless you want constant headaches and aggravation due to poor planning and customer service. I will be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau as well as city and state authorities, and encourage all affected customers to do likewise.

I'm obscenely excited about this new farmers market right around the corner. Perhaps too excited,…read moreyou might be saying, but then again you should probably shut up. Sure, it's only been open once so far, but if all the vendors stick with it it's going to be great all summer: They've got fresh spinach, tomatoes, scallions, cilantro, basil, cheese (fresh and smoked mozzarella, among others), bread, cheesy bread, rutabaga, radishes (including an old man making incomprehensible radish jokes) and TWO different types of kohlrabi. What am I gonna do with kohlrabi? I dunno, but I'm pumped. They've got apples, apple cider, apple cider doughnuts, apple sauce, asparagus, broccoli, pasta, crabcakes, crazy amounts of nuts from a couple places including The Original Delancey St. Peanut Company (not the new, knockoff Delancey St. Peanut Company). There's fresh tomato juice, bloody mary mix, cookies, pies and cakes. What else? Yona's Delights is here with all kinds of ready-to eat baked goods including quiches, bourekas, hot dog pastry thingies. There's a lemonade stand infusing things with all types of fruit and herbs. And best of all, there's a very enthusiastic guy who will stuff as many pickles and/or olives as can possibly fit into a pint/quart container, as well as generously insist upon giving you multiple plastic bags despite the protestations of your environmentally-conscious girlfriend. As far as I can tell, the only thing no one had was garlic, which was obviously the one thing I actually had on my shopping list (they promise to have it on Thursday). But I still walked away with a fridge's worth of fresh goods that, if it actually leads to me spending less money at restaurants this week, will keep me from going completely broke. Even if I do go completely broke though, they also take food stamps.

I'm new to this Market but as an aficionado of so many (which really just means I eat a lot of…read moreorganic apples and kale) I feel like I have a proper basis for this review. The positives are that it has a lot of original items - like creative pastries and fabrics and such - that its competitors less than 1/2 a mile north and south of them don't have, so in that way its distinctive. So then you can figure out the negative, which is that it just doesn't have that many fruits and vegetables, not enough to make it a true 'farmers market' as opposed to a bazaar that sells fruit as well. Either way, I do like it and will hopefully rate it higher upon my return, which tends to make a difference.

I am also quite happy with their vegetables, tomatoes are solid, asparagus is quite tasty and they have the one vegetable that I never thought I'd see- mini Japanese eggplants. They cook really fast and are really flavorful in a saute or a curry, no bitterness! 2012 has not been a great year for farmers but I have not witnessed a change in the produce of Kernan Farms.
