As long as our nemesis mother nature plays nice, this is shaping up to be biggest and best Flea yet. As noted on the Flea Blog today, there are a bunch of new high-qual, old-school vendors starting up this weekend, including Fort Greener Gary Ford who used to have a booth at the 25th Street Garage and will be showcaseing his eclectic mix of fossilized whale bones, Persian prayer rugs, and picture frames along the Clermont fence on Sunday. For the uninitiated, the Flea runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday and is located at 176 Lafayette Avenue. Closest trains are the C and G to Washington/Clinton. Or you can take any of the number of trains that go to Atlantic Station and make the 10-minute stroll up Lafayette Avenue from there. If you’ve come before and combined your outing with a visit to one of the many restaurants on Dekalb Avenue, why not be a tad more adventurous and check out the wealth of brunch options a few blocks north on Myrtle Avenue.
