The link to the Greenmarket Farmers Market website is very interesting. What interested me the most is the large amount of farmers there are and they joined the Greenmarket farmers market to help "promote regional agriculture by providing small family farms the opportunity to sell their locally grown, caught, foraged and baked products directly to consumers, and to ensure that ALL New Yorkers have access to the freshest, most nutritious locally grown food the region has to offer." This program provides healthy, fresh and local food for all New Yorkers, they grow and take care of community gardens, help New Yorkers to recycle more and to reduce waste. The website provides information about environmental education, they work with young people to show them to learn about it, grow it and eat it. I like that it provides a calender for what fruits and vegetables are available throughout the year. This website is very useful.
