What People Are Saying About University District Farmers Market
The Editor
Anna Roth
Citysearch
In Short – Producers sell almost everything at this popular market: Fresh, in-season fruit and vegetables, locally harvested oysters, cheeses from local dairies, bright flowers, artisan breads and more. If all the food sets stomachs a'rumbling, pastries, fresh cheese curds and more quick snacks are always available. At the height of the season in the summer, well-known chefs like Tamara Murphy from Brasa host cooking demonstrations using ingredients from the market to inspire shoppers.
The Details on University District Farmers Market
When to Go:
Mid-morning is best (though most crowded). Many stands aren't done setting up first-thing and run out of items later in the day.
Look Good:
Confounded by ramps, fiddleheads and squash blossoms? Producers are more than happy to dispense cooking tips and advice; barring that, simply asking "how do I cook this?" will usually elicit responses from other shoppers.
Parking:
Free parking can be found north of the market on Brooklyn and other side streets--just read the signs carefully.
