I, the undersign, state that I would frequently shop at a green market if there was one in the Brooklyn neighborhood. Green markets promote regional agriculture and produce a continuous supply of local and fresh products to New York City residents. Fresh fruits and vegetables are also a great source for essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are imperative for a healthy living. Furthermore, the heavily diverse neighborhood has many large transit hubs which can facilitate mass transportation to and from for thousands of New York City residents further supporting the green market.
The city bureaucrats are still stalling while neighborhoods like ours are forced to settle for sub-par food options. It is pathetic that they refuse to acknowledge the obvious need for a green market in Kensington. We are keeping the pressure on until they stop ignoring our health and our community.

Love the idea of supporting local farmers. It would bring a lot more life to our streets.
