2013 schedule change: the week of Thanksgiving the market will be open on Wednesday 11/27/13, and closed Thursday 11/28/13.

EBT/Food Stamps, debit/credit, and WIC & FMNP checks accepted.   

Greenmarket's gateway to the Upper West Side, the Tucker Square Greenmarket, offers locally grown produce just across the street from Lincoln Center. Seasonal vegetables range from fresh staples like corn and greens to Mexican specialties like papalo and epazote. Orchards boast sweet berries, stone fruit, and over 80 varieties of apples.
Knowledgeable growers are at market to explain just how to care for their plants, flowers, and herb pots indoors and out.  Impeccable farmstead cheeses, fresh seafood, grass fed beef, duck and duck charcuterie, eggs, artisanal baked goods, and New York’s only producer of both sorghum and maple syrup round out the offerings.  

Calendar of Events

Community activities, cooking demonstrations and recipe exchanges will add to the diverse nature of this market.

Managers

For Ashley Rafalow, what began as the unauthorized sampling of fruit at the supermarket as a toddler has grown into a passion for food, wellness and the greater good. Ashley still loves the experience of food shopping and in particular, how Greenmarkets bring folks together to meet, greet, taste, exchange, nibble and explore. Building upon a background in communications and volunteer experience at Foodlink and Just Food, Ashley is currently pursuing a master's of Public Health Nutrition at Hunter College. She hopes to carry on the momentum of the food movement to achieve large and small social and political change, one bite at a time. Where better to start than at the market?
