Ditmas Park Gets a Sweet New Farmers Market

Aptly located outside Kings County Hospital.

The NYC Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) decided to launch a brand-new farmers market in Ditmas Park this summer — and today was its first day.

The new outdoor market is located at 451 Clarkson Avenue, right in front of Kings County Hospital.

According to HHC, it offers ”a variety of affordable, regionally-grown vegetables, fruits, fresh juices and flowers.” Vendors also accept a number of payment options, including ”EBT/SNAP, Health Bucks, Green Checks, Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) coupons and Women, Infants and Children (WIC) coupons.”

If you happened to stop by today — or plan on doing so next Wednesday — we’d love to see some pics. Nothing like farmers market food porn to get summer started.
