I bought onions, green beans, peaches, bell peppers, tomatoes, and grapefruit for $8 total. I couldn't believe the prices I felt like I robbed the store. I would recommend to cook the vegetables soon after buying though because I noticed they can go bad quickly. However, there's nothing wrong with anything when I buy it. Everytime I'm in Jackson Heights, I make my way to Mango Rico.

No one shops here for the quality, but almost everyone comes for the price. HF Dollar & Up is…read moreeasily one of the most affordable grocery stores in the entire borough and it happens to be 24 hours and located right next to the Woodside MTA station. There was a time where most things were right around $1. It's as if a 99 cent discount store had a baby with a bodega, resulting in the mini-supermarket feel that it is now. While prices have risen, it is still considered affordable for the area. Expect produce prices to be between $2-5 depending on the item. There's also more than just produce, there is meat as well as seafood. Prepackaged goods are also available and there's a number of an imported items. If one is lucky, the store bodega cat might make an appearance. Service is not going to be that helpful and the quality of a lot of things are probably not going to be optimal. The store is also not the cleanest or the most organized. However, if one can spend $20 walk out with a fish, snacks, and a decent selection of fruit, that's a deal anywhere, but especially NYC. Like all affordable things in NY, it is strictly cash only.

I love HF Dollar and Up. They have all the items I usually need, with an extensive variety of…read morefruits. They have a ton of asian, hispanic, and american products. I find most of my Asian seasonings here. Their ramen is cheaper than HMART and I love looking at all the different sauces/seasonings. They typically have decent to great prices on produce and other goods. They have easily become one of my most frequented grocery stores.

This is one of my favorite green markets to go to in Queens. They usually have a large selection of…read morefresh produce, lavender, fresh baked goods, fresh fish, honey and selection of yogurts. They are only open on Sundays so make sure to make it early to get all these great products. My favorite reason to go is to interact with the workers. My favorite employee is Pierina; she would always have a smile on her face and was always available to help. When I didn't have cash, she would help me with the debit and credit tokens. I have not seen her in a while so I am wondering what happened to her since she has been working there every Sunday since I can remember. I will try to locate her at other green markets.

Smaller than the Saturdays Union Square Farmers' Market but also packed with lots of variety!…read more I enjoy visiting this farmers' market because of the variety of produce brought to the local street(s). One can find anything from flowers to herbs, spices, fruits, veggies, apple cider, Korean pastes, free samples, vegan baked goods, breads, cookies, fish, duck and other poultry, pig products, beef, assorted mushrooms, tamales (the one closer to 78th street is best, but if you're up for a sweet or dessert tamale, go to the lady on 80th), booze, syrups, honeys, NYC groups that take used clothing and textiles, compost, and a recycling book stand where anyone can take, swap, or donate books. It's also one block away from Travers Park which was recently updated. Great place to go for a stroll and enjoy. Happy shops!

I've worked in the Chelsea Market for 4 years now and have never once bought fruit from the…read moreManhattan Fruit Exchange. I know. Shocking. Instead I stuck to Haribo gummy snacks - i know, also shocking. Appalling even. Last week I had a craving for some fresh fruit so I stopped into the Manhattan Fruit Exchange and grabbed a pack of strawberry's and black cherry's. Strawberry's with sugar are one of my favorite snacks and these are the ripest, juiciest, sweetest strawberry's I've ever tasted. Don't be fooled by the name, Manhattan Fruit Exchange has a plethora of produce ranging from common to hard to find fruits and veggies. Things to know: The space is large and refrigerated so be prepared for the chill or bring a sweater (the workers wear sweatshirts even in the summer). Self serve. CASH ONLY.

The prices are a bit inconsistent: some of their stuff can be expensive, but much of it is pretty cheap by NYC standards. Their spices are cheaper than the last Indian supermarket I went to in Jersey City. So if you have an idea how much things should cost, then you can score some great deals here. $10 minimum for credit card (MC/Visa/Amex/Discover/JCB).

The Sunnyside Greenmarket is open all year, every Saturday, from 8 AM to 2 or 3 PM, depending on…read morethe season. On the day I visited, there were about 10-12 vendors from NY, NJ, and beyond, and the majority of them were farms offering produce. I did a little comparison shopping, and prices between them were pretty similar. There were free samples here and there too. And the selections varied so they weren't all selling the exact same tomatoes and greens. Besides fruits and veggies, I spotted baked goods, honey, dairy products, and meat. One cool thing about this particular Greenmarket is that there was a book swap and a composting station too. The layout is tight. All the vendors are in a row along the sidewalk, and they take up most of the sidewalk so at times you have to dodge other people, children, bikes, strollers, and dogs. Speaking of dogs, there's a dog run in the adjacent park. Of course, I ended up buying/spending too much, but it was well worth it for the delicious fresh local ingredients!

It takes place every Sunday from 8am-2pm. The vendors are set up next to MacDonald Park off Queens Blvd, and part of the service road and 70th Ave are closed to cars which makes it nice to stroll through. The greenmarket is open year-round, so even in the winter you can still find items like squash, apples, leafy greens, herbs, eggs, and milk.
