\"Greenmarket\"<\/a>The crisp bite in the air tells us fall is hoofing it over the horizon, but the apple cider donuts (the porch lamp to our proverbial moths, so to speak) at our Greenmarket<\/a> really drive home the point. If you’re looking for something to do with your Wednesday morning, look no further than our Mosholu Gate, where several of the region’s most respected producers join us each Wednesday to offer fruits, vegetables, juices, sauces, fresh-baked treats, and just about anything you wish your CSA care packages included more of.<\/p>\n

Recent highlights among the heaps of fresh-picked produce include a vibrant spectrum of peppers, from cayenne and sweet to white, blue, and hot cherry, while corn, chives, kale, Swiss chard, fennel, turnips, and parsnips cover the tables elsewhere. Tomatoes are also in top form, from hefty heirlooms to pickable, poppable cherry varieties. Macintosh and Paula apples lead the pack alongside peaches and plums, and Concord grapes have made a showing in recent weeks as well, with plenty of fruit juices and ciders to boot. And if you’re still in back yard barbecue mode, you should still see watermelons by the boxful when you join us tomorrow. Don’t forget to grab some pies on the way out!
