A recent visitor to this site inquired about where Salli shops for food when she's not sampling the restaurants of New York! So I am pleased to inform you of a recent discovery: Pumpkin's Organic Market. Pumpkin's, only open since May, aims to be your little piece of Vermont in Brooklyn. A wooden wheelbarrow at the entrance overflows with fresh produce. Christina, the owner, has created a homey environment in which to house her delicious organic foods.
I proceeded to load up my shopping basket with, among other things: Food For Thought Organic Jam (two flavors: Strawberry Basil and Blueberry Lavender), Vermont Pure Maple Butter Walnut Fudge (ummmmm), and spelt crackers. There is a small but tantalizing selection of Vermont cheeses, many kinds of olive oil and sea salt, Yu rice beverages in several flavors, vegan cookies, even organic lollipops. Strong organic coffee is brewed until noon.
Pumpkin's Organic Market: 13th St. & 8th Ave, Brooklyn. (718) 499-8539.
