It’s Halloween, so let’s take a look at some of the tricks n treats Brooklyn has to offer shoppers this week.
*****
Buying locally not only guarantees you fresher produce, it also helps cut down on the production of harmful greenhouse gases because trucks have to travel shorter distances. These are just two of the reasons that shopping at the Bay Ridge Market feels so good. Come on down every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and discover a bunch of tasty reasons of your own.
The Bay Ridge Greenmarket is located at 94th Street and 3rd Avenue and will be around from now until December. Come on down and enjoy the bountiful harvest from local farmers. Stock up on the freshest produce, meats, dairy and baked goods and hob-knob with your neighbors while you’re at it.
EBT cards are gladly accepted. Call 718-748-5200 for more information.

Home baked goods are something that are always a welcomed treat in this often chaotic world. That’s why you should come on down to the Family Bakery at 6726 5th Avenue and indulge. The friendly folks at Family Bakery only use natural ingredients in all their “sweeter than sweet” pastries so you can feel good about treating yourself and your family.
As the name implies, Family Bakery is truly a family-run enterprise started by folks with deep roots in the community. Catering for a wide variety of functions is available. Check out Family Bakery online at familybakerynyc.com.
