A Green Market Planned for Brooklyn Bridge Park

Exciting news: A farmers market is coming to Pier Six at Brooklyn Bridge Park! This upcoming Monday, the green market organization Down to Earth will present to the Community Board Two Parks Committee a proposal for a market on the upland portion of Pier Six. Down to Earth runs markets upstate, in Park Slope, and in Greenpoint’s McGolrick Park. If they are shooting for a launch this summer, they will join a number of food vendors also slated to set up around the park. Fornino Pizza will serve pizzas from the Pier Six concession stand, as well as beer on the rooftop beer garden. If you’re interested in learning more about the farmers market, the meeting is scheduled for Monday, April 15, at 6 pm at the Brooklyn Hospital at 121 DeKalb Avenue.
