Back by popular demand for its 2nd year with incredible support from this tight-knit community and Councilman Vincent Gentile (who calls the market “Bay Ridge’s town hall,”) the Bay Ridge Greenmarket is where long-time residents and new families meet to shop, share recipes and meet their neighbors. Councilman Gentile makes an appearance every Saturday to talk to his constituents and do his shopping. On hand is a great selection of producers providing everything from American Seafood’s fresh fish, baked goods from Bread Alone Bakery, and a bounty of seasonal fruit, vegetables and flowers from Caral Farm and Jersey Farm Produce.

Manager

Allison Whaley grew up in Kentucky, surrounded by tobacco fields and horse farms, where she used to sneak onto neighboring plantations to play in musty barns (and was shot at only once). Growing up, farmers markets were the norm. After teaching organic gardening skills as a Peace Corps Volunteer in South America, Allison moved to the Big Apple, baffling friends and family by landing a job that fuses her nostalgic Kentucky past with her Peace Corps experiences. Find Allison in one of her Brooklyn Greenmarkets, and you’ll find a girl who could not be happier.
