Brooklyn Borough Hall Greenmarket
The greenmarket is located adjacent to Brooklyn Borough Hall in Columbus Park at Court and Remsen streets. It is a popular greenmarket offering farm-fresh local produce, plants, baked goods, and more. The Borough Hall Greenmarket is open from 8am-6pm every Tuesday and Saturday, year-round, and Thursday from April to December. This year, it is celebrating its 25th anniversary of supporting local farmers and bringing fresh food to Brooklynites.

Fort Greene Greenmarket
At the Fort Greene Greenmarket, local farmers sell their fresh, home-grown foods year-round, every Saturday from 8am to 5pm -- rain or shine. The market is located at Fort Greene Park's Washington Park & DeKalb Avenue entrance. During the spring and summer, the greenmarket is joined by the Artisans Market.

Greenmarket, a program of the Council on the Environment of New York City, promotes regional agriculture and ensures a continuing supply of fresh, local produce for New Yorkers, and has organized and managed open-air farmers markets in NYC since 1976. This program supports farmers and preserves famland for the future by providing regional small family farmers with opportunities to sell their fruits, vegetables and other farm products to New Yorkers.

Fort Greene Artisans Market
The Artisan Market has provided a much-needed venue for local artists and designers to show and sell their wares in an easily accessible and popular location. Located adjacent to the Greenmarket on the DeKalb Avenue side of Fort Greene Park, the Artisan Market creates a veritable outdoor sidewalk gallery showing a wide range of functional and collectible art and design items.

Artists personally display and sell only their own original creations. Added to the benefit of purchasing a well crafted original, one also has the opportunity to talk to the artist about how their piece was made.
