Windsor Terrace - PS154

Windsor Terrace - PS154 is part of GrowNYC, a nonprofit that funds its work through support for education, food access, farming, and green space across New York City. Set at 11th Ave between Sherman & Windsor Place in Brooklyn, this seasonal market connects neighborhood shopping with that broader food-access mission. GrowNYC also states that its Greenmarkets follow strict producer-only standards, so the focus here is on farm-based products grown or made by the people selling them. That combination gives this market a clear identity: a Brooklyn stop tied to a citywide organization working on both fresh food access and environmental programs.

Why it matters locally

GrowNYC frames its work around education, food access, farming, and green space, and Windsor Terrace - PS154 sits inside that same mission. For a neighborhood market, that matters because the market is not only a place to buy food; it is part of an organization that also runs Greenmarkets and the Teaching Garden on Governors Island. GrowNYC describes its Greenmarkets as maintaining strict producer-only standards, meaning farmers and food businesses sell farm-based products they grow or produce themselves.

The organization also highlights support for regional farmers alongside fresh fruits and vegetables for WIC participants and low-income seniors through food-access programs. SNAP is accepted here, which makes that access mission relevant on the ground at this Brooklyn location. In practice, Windsor Terrace - PS154 links a specific neighborhood block to a larger farm-to-city system that GrowNYC says has been part of New York food life for decades.

What you'll find there

Know before you go

No restrooms and a no-dogs policy are the two details most likely to affect a visit here. The market is set on 11th Ave between Sherman & Windsor Place, so plan for an outdoor street-market setup rather than an enclosed facility. The season runs from May through December, which makes this a warm-weather-through-late-fall shopping stop rather than a year-round one.

If you use nutrition benefits, GrowNYC directs shoppers with SNAP questions to the green market information tent, where staff can help with benefits use. Payment options are clearly identified through GrowNYC market systems, and the organization notes that SNAP benefits cannot be exchanged for cash, though EBT Cash may be used to purchase food. Those details make this a market where logistics around benefits, rules, and basic amenities are worth knowing before arrival.
