  • Nothing like the market days in European cities, but a start can be seen on Saturdays in Morningside. It has just started this year and offers organically grown fruits and vegetables, flowers as well as some meats. They are open only on Saturday mornings 8:00-11:30 and you need to go early before they sell out of things. Apart from the merchandise, one of the neat things about the place is that it is individual farmers selling what they have grown. It is also heartening to see a least some steps toward organic farming.

    It is at 1393 North Highland, just about a mile north of Ponce de Leon Ave. Just across the street from Alon's.
