Savoring the Downtown Greenmarket

On Saturday, Blogger Blather from Brooklyn visited the Greenmarket in the plaza in front of Brooklyn Borough Hall and the Federal Courthouse:

This is a perfect, clear Saturday and season's gorgeous, delicious bounty is filling the plaza...The turkey farmer was sizzling samples of his homemade sausage on a grill. At a bakery stand, a tray of broken cookies was available for tasting. A farmer who specializes in fruit spread her homemade jam on crackers and artfully arranged them on a paper plate while a girl nearby set out slices of ripe, juicy peaches. It was impossible not to taste and buy, taste and buy, taste and buy.
