Anastasia Petrie moved to New York from the Pacific Northwest, trading mountains for skyscrapers in 2005. Adjusting to the customs of her new home was no small task but the thing she pined for above all else was fresh tomatoes, hot from the summer sun picked from her home garden. Her quest for fresh produce turned into an obsession leading her eventually to Greenmarket where she revels in the bounty of beautiful New York produce and the joy of sharing it with her neighbors. |
