St. George Greenmarket actually IS Open

Despite what we'd been led to believe by this page, which says the St. George greenmarket doesn't open until July, it actually is open now. Today. We haven't walked down there yet this season (gee, we thought it was closed!), but some of last year's weekly highlights included stupendous white corn, ripe low-acid tomatoes, apple cider donuts, and some truly excellent freshly ground turkey -- all ridiculously cheap (by NYC standards, perhaps) and sold by sincere, friendly, and helpful farmers. If we can make it down there, we'll take some pics and put up an article.

According to this article on silive.com, the market is open 12-2pm every Saturday until November at the St. George Municipal Parking Lot at the corner of Hyatt St. and St. Marks Place.
