yes foragers is maybe good so we have some fresh stuff. but why the hell are the prices so high? thank god abc is moving out and hopefully this stupid influx of mediocre bullshit will not be able to survive. i have been here since '85 when this was truly a place for real artists and now all mediocrity is trying to creep in. TRYING.live here in you like to but come with respect and NOT greed.

As a fellow Ft. Greener, I couldn't agree more. With the end of the season for the Ft. Greene Park Saturday farmer's market coming to a close, it's pretty much Fresh Direct until spring. Well, that and L'Epicerie on Vanderbilt near Dekalb for specialty items.

Peas and Pickles is currently the ONLY place in Dumbo where you can buy food. It's a great deli, but it's no grocery store. It's about time someone opened a grocery store to supply all those people paying for over-priced condos with their pine nuts, dried cherries, and arugula. Now, will someone please bring a decent market to Fort Greene?? I hate having to walk all the way to Atlantic Center just to buy groceries. And Bravo just doesn't cut it.

More crap in DUMBO. It's actually amazing how long that neighborhood managed to hold out and be decent. I don't hate the people for moving there or anything :) It's just a shadow of it's former self. Hopefully the rumored housing bubble will stave off the reamining development. Doubtful.
