- FARMERS’ MARKET HAUL! Join me as I head to the Union Square Greenmarket in Manhattan and get all the seasonal groceries that we’ll need for meal prep this week! Thank you to Zarbee’s Naturals for sponsoring this video and creating the most delicious black elderberry syrup! Check them out: w2buy.net/05lr...
Before I head out to the market, I like to grab my reusable bags (to carry all my groceries) and my compost from the freezer (to drop it off along the way)...I also layer up because it’s COLD! I shot this on a Monday, and I did not realize until I got there that it’s a lot more sparse on Monday mornings than it is on my usual trips during the weekend. It’s also winter and the virus is still a threat, so the vendors were just ⅓ of their usual number!
The farmers’ market is one of the most magical places in all of Manhattan. It’s in Union Square (14th street) and it’s filled with local vendors, candle makers, farmers, and more! It just brings me so much joy.
Here’s what I got all for $65 total!
I love getting fresh seasonal produce and buying “naked produce” (aka, in no plastic packaging). I also do occasionally have to supplement this trip with a trip to the regular grocery store because we also do eat some produce that’s not local/seasonal.
I’m working on another video sharing how I meal prep these items, so come back to the Lucie Fink channel soon to see more!

Love this video!! I loved the honey comb section! Let us know how you like it!!
OMG it's so creamy and delicious!! And the best news is it doesn't go bad!!!! So I'm savoring it and taking my sweet 🍯 time!!!
Thanks for raising awareness on picking "ugly" fruits and veggies! More on this type of content, especially on food waste, would be amazing! ❤️❤️
YESSS!! I love the 'ugliessss'
Can’t wait for the beekeeping!
OMG SAME 🐝
FYI if you start eating local honey (1 tps a day) a few months or so before spring, you'll avoid getting seasonal allergies once everything blooms. Has worked for me for years!
as a Canadian I'm always surprised when people didn't know what cheese curds are lol they're so good! :)
HAHA never heard of them!!
@@luciebfink you should try making poutine with them!! french fries + cheese curds + gravy on top = yummy!
They’re really big in Wisconsin too. Here they fry them up in some breading then dip them in ranch. It’s like a mozzerella stick but smaller 🤤
Yes they are but in Wisconsin people know.
Saaame! From Montreal and it’s an essential especially on poutine 🤤
Hey Lucie, just to let you know GMOs don’t make fruits and vegetables look perfect, it is always good to pick the “ugly ones”. A lot of times they are modified to endure harsh conditions like drought or the heavy use of pesticides and herbicides in commercial farming. I thought I would just let you know.
YESSS, I love choosing the uglies!!! hehe
Love this! Would you consider going back when the farmers market is at its peak of the season?
YES I'll do a summer version!
@@luciebfink that's so exciting! Thank you!
I love this Lucie. Your content is so good!! I have been watching you since the R29 days!! I love your channel!!
AWWWW 🥰 this is the kindest. Thank you for the supportttt!!! xx
Carrot greens are so yum. Wash. Freeze. Throw them in your smoothies. They contain 6x the Vit. C of a carrot, and help with digestion.
yum yum
Or to make Pesto Sauce out of them 🤤
I absolutely love it that you pick the “funnies”. We grow all heirloom varieties on our small, no-kill, organic farm and much of our produce is not the typical, hybrid, pretty but tasteless foods!
Love it! Thank you so much! ❤️
Edited to add: SUBSCRIBED!
😁🙏🏼❤️
Oh my goodness! You’ve never had squeaky cheese!? I hope you liked it!! A little tip, if you want it to stay squeaky leave it out for about 30 minutes before you eat them to get them room temperature and then you can squeak to your hearts delight! ❤️
omg love this!!!! IT WAS SO SQUEAKY!!
Keep the carrot greens!!! Make a pesto with carrot greens. Lots of vitamins, great on pasta and dipping veggies!!!
OOOO Sounds yummy! Do you just mix them in a blender?
@@luciebfink yes!! It’s really simple. My recipe is vegan:
Greens
Clove or two of garlic
Olive oil
Pine nuts
Parmesan cheese (for non-vegans)
Salt
Lemon juice
Blend it all together until it has your desired consistency. I like it thinner for sauce but thicker for dipping. You can substitute any nut for pine nuts (since they can be pricey). You can also do this with radish greens, turnip greens, kale, etc. I sometimes make this to use leftover greens. You can freeze it for 3 months.
@@sandys209 This sounds glorious. THANK YOU SANDY!
Hey, Lucie, I find your content endearing. How are you feeling health wise? I convey my regards
Feeling SO much better!!!
Lucie, you should make poutine with your cheese curds and potatoes. (A Quebec delicacy!) If you don't like gravy, you can find substitutes.
oooo sounds yummy!!!
Cheese curds are what are used in poutine! They melt soooooo well because they are such a 'young' cheese. Also so excited for you to visit an urban hive!
YUMMM I'll have to melt them!
I love your videos Lucie. For gluten-free menu please try to look into Indian food. And by Indian I do not mean Tikka Masala. I am from India but live in Canada and realized that 50 % of the food I cook is gluten free and vegetarian without even trying.
Love this! Do you have book recommendations for nutrition and health?
I LOVE The Blue Zones Solution (Dan Beuttner) and Eat Smarter (Shawn Stevenson)!
@@luciebfink thank you!!
Carrot tops are edible! Keep ‘em next time and put them in your smoothie. You may as well get your money’s worth on the whole bunch!
Which vendor do you get cheddar cheese from at union Square Market? I can never find it, but maybe I'm going on the wrong day!
I pick the oddly shaped produce for the exact same reason. ❤️
Also interesting to know is that most farmers markets accept Snap benefits
Thanks for sharing! Try setting an alarm on your cell to remind you to take your vitamins (once a day, twice a day, whenever). This will help you to stay committed to your health journey. Alarms on your cell can be used for anything you don’t want to forget to do like drinking enough water, exercising, meditation or stretching, calling friends or family, cleaning/ organizing tasks, work or school assignments, me time, etc. Good luck!🙂
THANK YOU, so important!!! I always just try to remember which is a bad plan lol
Beekeeping sounds really interesting! ☺️
Agreeeed😅❤️
You can also regrow scallions by cutting them an inch away from the root and plant it into soil.
I loved your little segment with Andrew and can’t wait for your video with him and 🐝 hive💛 I had no idea the color of the honey was because of the pollination situation and the type of flower 🌸
RIGHT? So interesting!!!
Can u do a video of you cooking with all your vegestables
Love your herb garden on your counter!! Where is it from? Have been meaning to grow herbs at home but always manage to kill them and thinking a herb garden with a light on a timer might help!
That one is aerogarden!!!
Loved this! Thanks Lucie, looking forward to the meal prep video!
YAY!!
I Love your personality! And your content is so unique and genuine! Sending love ❤️
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
You sound like reese Witherspoon
I farm in NY
Cool
First! I love all of your video Lucie!
THANK YOU!!
Omg, thank you for replying! Also I’m so happy you shop from a farmers market. It so great to get food from local farmers!
grass fed local meats are the best!😃
Here in Utah, we often refer to cheese curds as “squeaky cheese” 😂 it really is so tasty
HAHAHAH
We regrow our spring onions from the grocery store!
LOVE this!
Love the video!!! Do you go to the Farmers Market every weekend? I can't wait for the meal prep video!
Not every weekend!! Sometimes we leave the city for the weekend to see family so we go during the week. But on a standard weekend spent in the city, we try to go!
@@luciebfink Can't wait for the video with Ally about the apartment!
@@kateretherford8336 omg same! working on it now!!
I'm actually early for once!
Me too!
HEY!!
@@luciebfink ahhhhhh hi
you can make Poutine with the cheese curds! its like pomme frites with gravy and cheese curds
Love this Lucie! A little tip about potatoes: store them in a dark, fresh place near apples. In this way, they will not sprout. Love from Italy. Btw, love the fact that you choose the nonperfect fruits and vegetables of all. The other day I choose the weirdest scallion too at the supermarket cause I didn't want to leave him alone hahahah
Yesterday was Friday for me cause I live in jamaica
You got some good stuff!
THANK YA!!!!
My fave market.
same!!!
Did you get a COVID vaccine?
No I'm not yet eligible!

Thank you Kristian!!!
Can’t wait for the rooftop bee hive video!!🐝
First☝ 💕😂

Great video, but $6 for a dozen eggs? Wow.
Yeah, organic pasture-raised eggs are a biggy (I'd say worth it since I eat eggs almost every day!) buuut the price of the produce balances it out I believe!
@@luciebfink 🥰
Do more dances please
Boring
