“Last year, we expanded our markets to Southwest Hoboken, which has been a great addition to the neighborhood,” Mayor Ravi Bhalla said in a statement.
“The addition of the third market provides even more convenient options for fresh fruits and vegetables, along with other goods, for residents to help promote healthy lifestyles and bring the community together. Thank you to the many vendors and partners who have helped to make these markets possible.”
