It's on 6 of my lists. Each entry below is what I wrote about it there, with my verdict on that list, the fullest first.
Is there anything better than fresh apple cider and donuts during the fall in NYC? I think not! Home to 48 farmers markets, there’s no shortage of fresh fall treats in the Big Apple. My personal favorite market for apple cider goodies is Union Square Farmers Market. In my years of living here, I’ve ate my fair share in calories and now encourage you to do the same.
Regardless of which vendor you buy from, walking around with a hot apple cider as you peruse the market is easily one of the best things to do in NYC in October. Fall treats in New York City are too good to miss, so don’t forget to visit a market.

Every Wednesday, Friday & Saturday there’s a greenmarket on the north end of Union Square Park, full of vendors that provide some of the best plant shopping in New York City. The selection is wide enough to warrant a visit, and (most) of the plants are sold at a reasonable price.
There is something so serene about a weekend stroll through the market, fresh snack or coffee in hand, as you peruse the greenery. Two of my favorites vendors at the market are Petal Plants and Fantastic Gardens. The plants they sell are healthy and thriving, just waiting for somebody to bring them home.
