These snow covered apples provided pretty much the only color in all of Union Square during a recent storm. As I always say, i know I am not the only person in this city who appreciates our local farmers and vendors who bring their products to the markets every weekend, rain, shine or snow.
So go out this weekend and enjoy the markets because they are here for nobody but us!
