Brooklyn Flea, Flea (and Food!) Markets in Fort Greene and Smorgasburg

[Tweaked]

The Brooklyn Flea people run several weekend flea markets. Fort Greene is the original flagship location, located at Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School's 40,000 sq-foot schoolyard. Although Smorgasburg is probably their more well known operation.

The Fort Greene flea is a mix of junk, repurposed, vintage, and newly crafted artisan stalls, jammed with hipsters, tourists, and folks from the neighborhood. But let's not forget about the food. Come ready to eat. The side of the market closest to the school is a street foodway, with vendors selling tacos, pupusas, dosa, sausages (Brooklyn Bangers), porcetta sandwiches (Porcetta), grilled cheese (Milk Truck Grilled Cheese), fresh made soda (Brooklyn Soda Works), even made-to-order wood-fired pizza (Pizza Moto).

Down the middle of the flea market are several bakery, donut, chocolate, cookie/baked goods type stalls...plenty of free samples.

Definitely worth a good walk about.
