Finding fresh, affordable, locally grown food in the Bronx this summer is becoming as easy as ordering a double bacon cheeseburger at a drive-through window.City-wide, local farm programs, GrowNYC and Just Food, are combining to offer ten different farmer’s markets locations in the Bronx.Throughout Bronx neighborhoods, the farmer’s markets have annually provided residents with fresh fruits, vegetables and other healthy produce grown by regional farmers.In addition to providing fresh food in neighborhoods which lack abundant choices of healthy produce, farmer’s markets promote interaction between the community and farmers. Farmers and vendors are great sources for tips and ideas for the novice chef or urban farmer.One teen-run market in Morisania will be offering workshops, free to the public, on nutrition and healthy eating through cooking demos and take-home pamphlets. The market is part of GrowNYC’s “Learn It, Grow It, Eat It” hands-on urban agriculture and nutrition youth program. In a borough where obesity and diabetes have become prominent fears among children, farmer’s markets provide a novel dietary selection that is both healthy and hands-on. The response has only lead to an increase in vendors and patrons.Although, some markets did not return this year – such as the Botanical Garden Metro North parking lot market – new sites have sprouted up.
