What There's Alot of in Berlin

I haven't found a flea market or a farmer's market in our area north of Munich yet. I miss them! I still have some stuff I bought in Berlin at the Flohmarkt 25 years ago and I really would love to buy some fresh produce at a Farmer's market. I'm sure I'll figure out where they are around here soon...
ReplyDeleteThe farmer's markets are great, we get most of our food from our favorite one, Winterfeld Platz. The Flea markets are really good for finding bikes, if you don't have them yet. Everyone says they're stolen, but everywhere else they are very expensive. Good luck!
