Skip Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods and wander over to the Union Square Greenmarket for the freshest produce in town and home-baked goodies straight from the farm.
Peruse the tents and stock up on a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, potted plants and fresh flowers, and baked-from-scratch desserts, pies, and cookies.
The vendors are friendly and local -- many bring their products directly from farms and fields in the tri-state area. Get there early for the best selection.
