Here’s another great option that most people are unaware of. The Fulton Stall Market at 91 South Street (just south of Fulton) has lots of fresh locally farmed, foods and meats. They are open Monday – Saturday from 11:30 – 4:00 PM. Here is their website: https://fultonstallmarket.org
The fruit cart at the corner of Mulberry and Canal is back. They sell fresh fruits and Asian produce. It’s open every day. No lines.
I’m so happy to hear from Robert Janz!
