The Bartel-Pritchard Square Greenmarket is one of Windsor Terrace’s most cherished weekend traditions — a small but vibrant farmers’ market that brings together local growers, bakers, artisans, and neighbors in a lively circle at the southwest entrance of Prospect Park. For anyone staying in the area, this market offers an authentic taste of Brooklyn living: relaxed, community-oriented, and centered around good food and fresh ingredients. Open year-round on Wednesdays and Sundays, the greenmarket transforms the historic Bartel-Pritchard Square into a welcoming gathering place. You’ll find tables covered in crisp apples, leafy greens, seasonal berries, fresh herbs, and vegetables straight from New York farms. Honey jars glisten in the sunlight, baked goods fill the air with warmth, and vendors greet customers with the easy friendliness that defines neighborhood markets. Even if you’re just browsing, the calm energy of the space makes it a pleasant stop during a morning walk. What makes this market especially great is its balance — it’s big enough to offer real variety but small enough to feel intimate. You can move at your own pace, stopping to sample cider, examine heirloom tomatoes, or chat briefly with farmers about what’s in season. Regular vendors include regional dairy producers, flower growers, egg and poultry farms, and bakers offering everything from sourdough loaves to buttery pastries. During peak seasons, you’ll also find mushrooms, maple syrup, jams, and even small-batch hot sauces and pickles. For travelers staying at LunaEscapes on 16th Street, the Bartel-Pritchard Greenmarket is incredibly convenient — just a few minutes’ walk past tree-lined streets and neighborhood cafés. Many guests love beginning their Sunday with a stop at the market, grabbing fresh bread, fruit, or pastries before heading into Prospect Park for a picnic. Others pick up ingredients to cook a simple meal in their rental’s kitchen — a refreshing, grounding activity after long days exploring the city. Even beyond the produce, the atmosphere is what gives the market its charm. Dogs trot alongside their owners, kids clutch small bags of berries, and neighbors greet each other as they pick out vegetables for dinner. Musicians occasionally stop by, adding soft background music to the already pleasant rhythm of the market. The experience is unhurried and peaceful — a welcome contrast to the fast pace of Manhattan — and it offers visitors a glimpse into the daily lives of Windsor Terrace locals. The location at the entrance to Prospect Park only enhances the appeal. Many people pair their market visit with a long walk through the park, a jog around the Lake, or a relaxed picnic on the Long Meadow. In the fall, the market becomes especially beautiful with colorful foliage around the circle; in the spring, fresh flowers and herbs signal the beginning of warmer weather and outdoor activities. For LunaEscapes guests, the Bartel-Pritchard Square Greenmarket adds something special to your Brooklyn stay. It’s not a tourist attraction — it’s a genuine neighborhood gathering point where you can experience the slower, more grounded side of the city. Whether you’re stocking up on snacks, planning a park picnic, or simply enjoying the warm community energy, this market makes you feel like part of Windsor Terrace, even if only for a few days. A visit here is simple, local, and refreshingly authentic — the kind of small but meaningful moment that shapes your memory of Brooklyn long after your trip ends.
