Being a part of NYC’s Green Market scene is nothing new here at BOE, but I wanted to take a few minutes to talk about this one-of-a-kind market experience. BOE is proud and excited to be part of this unique event, the New Amsterdam Market. The brainchild Robert La Valla and Cerise Mayo, the market takes it’s inspiration from some of the world’s most historic bazaars, Les Halles and London’s Borough Market. It’s also a celebration of one of New York’s first economies. The setting, situated on South Street between Peck Slip and the Foulton Fish Market, is in the same spot as the original South Street Market, where some of the city’s first residents procured produce, cheese and meat from farmers who ferried their wares in from across the river in Brooklyn.
Following in that tradition (although we’ll be driving, not boating), BOE will set up shop amongst some other great local wineries (Paumanok Vineyards, Bridge Winery). We’ll be pouring samples, so come by and try before you buy! The market will run one Sunday (starting this Sunday, September 13th @ 11am) a month through December. Check the website for more dates and information.
See you there!
