Myrtle Eats Fresh Community Chef Roisin Ford

Stop by the Fort Greene Greenmarket this Saturday between 11AM- 1PM to have a taste of Myrtle Eats Fresh Chef Roisin’s farm fresh, healthy recipe – Pearl Couscous and Seasonal Veggie Medley! If you like what you taste (which we know you will!) you can take a recipe and purchase the ingredients right there at the market.

The Fort Greene Greenmarket is located along the southeast corner of Fort Greene Park on Washington Park between Dekalb and Willoughby from 8AM – 5PM year-round every Saturday.

The Greenmarket accepts EBT/Food Stamps, Debit/Credit, and WIC & FMNP checks accepted. EBT/Debit/Credit accepted 8 a.m. – 3 p.m. In addition, Health Bucks are now available – for every $5 spent in EBT, customers receive a $2 Health Buck coupon to purchase additional fruits and vegetables!

The Myrtle Eats Fresh Community Chef Program includes a diverse group of 15 local residents who share the goal of improving the health of their neighbors by providing easy, nutritious, and affordable recipes. All chefs have completed 20+ hours of training and have conducted cooking demos at local farmer’s markets, community events, and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) distribution sites.
