The Union Square Farmer’s Market causes crowds to swell on the weekends, gathering fresh greens, organically grown veggies and fruits, potted plants, herbs and cut flowers. Weekdays provide a more mellow shopping experience; people on lunch breaks pass through quickly, leaving lots of browsing space for locals and chefs looking for daily special ingredients. Many specialty items can be found here as well such as fresh pheasant, wild boar, fingerling potatoes and fiddlehead ferns. No matter what season it is, this year-round market keeps going.
