The Greenmarket Report: Donations and Nutrition

The Donate-a-Bag initiative at Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket was so successful last week that they’re doing it again today. Help feed hungry New Yorkers, those affected by Hurricane Sandy and relief workers by purchasing an extra bag of produce while you shop, and bring it to the Market Information Tent between 8am and 1pm.

Also this week, Blue Moon is back at GAP with fish, and textile and food scrap recycling returns.

A reminder that the Park Slope Farmers Market has switched to winter hours, and will be open from 10am-4pm tomorrow. Also note that, due to the severe weather, the NY Farmers Market Nutrition Program has been granted permission to extend the program season through Saturday, Decembers 1.

The GAP Greenmarket runs Saturdays from 8am-4pm at Grand Army Plaza. The Park Slope Farmers Market runs Sundays from 10am-4pm along 4th Street at 5th Ave.
