Farmers market reopens for first time since 9/11

NEW YORK — A farmers market that once operated at the World Trade Center has returned to the area for the first🎀 time since Sept. 11.

Vendors have not been in the area for nearly 16 years, but now a new market ꦑstands just east of One World Trade Center.

the World Trade Center market was one of the first farmers market♔s to open in New York City.

In the years following 9/11, there were att🥂empts to relocate the market in other downtown areas. None could match the scope of the old location. Jessica Lappin, a community organizer in downtown New York, says the area really wanted the market back ܫup and running.

The🎃 market will be open every Tuesday through N🌟ovember.
