The Dag Hammarskjold Plaza Greenmarket brings local food to the Turtle Bay community.  Just around the corner from the United Nations Plaza, this market reflects the colorful and sophisticated palates of its neighbors, from classics like sweet corn and buttery squash to unusual finds such as microgreens and pimientos de padron.  In their respective seasons, shoppers will find over twenty varieties of apples, berries, stone fruit, and grapes amidst a vast selection of fruit and vegetables.  A great selection of sustainably raised meats-- beef, pork, chicken, fresh and smoked fish-- as well as glass bottled milk, farmstead cheeses, and ice cream are all on offer.

Manager

Originally from a sleepy Connecticut town, where her parents own a natural and organic grocery store, Lucinda moved to the big city five years ago by way of Boston. She is excited to be returning to her local-farming, community-building, small-business roots with GrowNYC this season. Lucinda loves cooking, searching out delicious new foods, and making sure you’re eating your fruits and veggies. When she’s not at the markets, Lucinda can be found coddling her herb and vegetable plants on her Brooklyn roof deck.
