Markets of New York City

Who doesn't love the outdoor markets in NYC? Even on a partly cloudy day like this one, the markets were in full bloom. I caught a ride on the heels of Karen Seiger - author of Markets of New York City: A Guide to the Best Artisan, Farmer, Food, and Flea Markets, aficionado/lover of the markets, and promoter of artisans, farmers, food purveyors, antiques and flea collectors, and visionary market managers who keep these traditional-style markets alive and vibrant.

It was so fun walking around with her at the
Smorgasburg in Williamsburg. She knows many of these fascinating people working their owns booths; promoting their businesses. Each with amazing products and interesting stories. Chefs, authors and entrepreneurs to name a few with creative ideas and oh, did I tell you - the food was amazing. If you want to know what going on in NYC, love to people watch, take in the action while walking the flea/food/artisan/farmers markets - grab her book and check out her blog @ http://www.marketsofnewyork.com/category/markets/
