As its name suggests, GreenFlea combines two ecologically sound practices — eating locally and buying used items — into one big event. Outside, farmers from nearby towns sell fruits, vegetables, jellies, baked goods, and other reasonably priced edibles. Inside the school's double doors, intrepid shoppers can comb the flea market for all types of dusty treasures — from vintage clothing and accessories to armoires, knick-knacks, and comic books. It's convenient, one-stop shopping for consumers looking to jump-start a greener lifestyle, as well as New Yorkers who are just desperate for a decent tomato or some cheap, retro furniture.
