greenmarket
Local harvest sale
A greenmarket is an outdoor market selling fresh produce, often directly from local farmers.
The term emphasizes freshness and local sourcing, distinguishing these markets from conventional grocery stores: I picked up some tomatoes at the greenmarket this morning.
In some cities, greenmarket is a proper noun for specific municipal farmers' markets.
