Broadway between 114th and 116th (in front of Lerner) is the place to be today if you have yet to stock up on fridge fodder. If you want to stave off the freshman (or sophomore… or junior) 15, and you kinda dig supporting local farmers, then Columbia Greenmarket is your best bet every Thursday and […]

Bwog is a big fan of the farmer’s market, and over the years we’ve gotten to know them pretty well. The market sets up in the early morning on the east side of Broadway from 114th to 116th streets on Thursdays and Sundays, and usually wraps up by around 5 pm. There’s a fantastic array […]

The only way to truly take a study break is to eat some snacks. Consider that you are on your tenth study break and that there are local, farm-fresh, nutritional offerings at your door! HamDel will still be there tomorrow, but not the Farmer’s Market! Out there today: Many succulent representatives from the allium genus: […]

Now that it’s finally warm outside, we’re going to skip the intro that we usually include to coerce you into leaving the haven that is your Furnald single and heading over to the Greenmarket. Today’s lineup: Cut flowers and fragrant lavender, available both Sunday and Thursday for the next three weeks (filed under: a nice […]

Weather.com, the sometimes scrooge of the internet, has lied to us before (read: yesterday). But since it’s only early-afternoon, we’re willing to invest some hope in its mostly sunny, high 50s prediction. In which case, you should grab your throwback Chewbacchanal sunglasses and stop by the Greenmarket, which promises a “nice full market.” The market will […]

Rise and… shine? Nah, that would be too much to ask. Just rise and shuffle over to class. But afterward, when you’ve been awake for an appropriate amount of time to “shine,” consider doing so at the Greenmarket. The lineup: The return of Lani’s Farm, complete with “greens of all types” (but probably not the […]

April showers might bring May flowers, but first they’re bringing you a super spring-y Greenmarket selection. Alongside the usual fare, there will be: Beth’s Farm Kitchen making a cameo appearance Freshly sprung spring lavender No Hodgsons Farm for the day A selection of Borghese Vineyards’ award-winning Long Island wines Note: the ostrich and pork stand […]

Mornin’ Morningside! Yes, the weather still sucks, and no, it isn’t a snow day. Good news though! The Greenmarket will still be open and waiting eagerly to fulfill your ostrich egg needs.

For some, spring break is a time to go crazy. There are many ways and places to go crazy, but you might not have thought of the Columbia farmer’s market. Now you can! The great beasts are laying! Roaming Acres Ostrich Farm will have eggs! You can live the dream of being a sexy young […]

Our friends at the Greenmarket inform us that despite the chilly forecast, they will be open today. Most of the regular farmers will be in, except for Stannards farm. Greenmarket-ers can expect to see a new face, Dan Madura, this Thursday. He usually sells exotic mushrooms (no, not that kind!) on Sundays, but will be […]

Despite the salty/icy/snowy state of campus, Greenmarket will be open and full of fresh fruits, vegetables and more. Please note that Buon Pane and American Seafood will be out this week. Stop by for: The return of Broadway Acres and its goat cheese (perfect for the Superbowl!) Ostrich jerky Apples Cider Eggs Pickles Honey Organic […]

Oops! Today’s page seems to be missing from the almanac! (We did discover, however, a page of the Facebook variety – they have joined our good friend International in the realms of social networking.) However the farmers market is open, with 5 farms expected. It’s a good day for cider and donuts!

The first Greenmarket of the semester is up and running! Needless to say, it will become more bountiful as the clime warms, but there are still plenty of delicious looking apples and other tasty treats (apple cider, apple donuts…) and some new vendors! Thursday 1/20: Both bakers, Merediths and Buon Pane, are expected back from […]

Greenmarket is today and not Thursday (’cause Thursday is Thanksgiving, duh) so that means that this is your last chance to stock up on local- and localish-ly produced comestibles on Broadway before break. Some highlights: A duck booth, offering Thanksgiving duck of all varieties: smoked duck, duck legs, duck confit, and duck fat Decorative fall-y […]
