Max S. • January 26, 2014Great park that's open to the public, but little-known to people outside stuy-town. Best known for the farmers market in the fall, ice rink in the winter, and of course sunbathers in the summer.

Scoutmob • November 28, 2011Greenwich Village's Jefferson Market Garden opened in 1974 on the site of a few historical public buildings. One was a women's prison. But that was conveniently left off their info placard.

Birch L. • December 17, 2010Nice little plant shop in a public farmer's market. Associated with a new large garden center opening. They'll order any plant you want!
