Another sign of spring: the fruit-and-vegetable stand with proprietor Masud returned yesterday on the SE corner of First Avenue and Sixth Street... after a late-December departure.
Unfortunately, he has a lot more competition now with the new Metro Acres Market on 5th and 1st which has a good selection of fresh fruit and vegetables at decent prices.
Metro Acres is indeed cheaper for certain things. They have really great avocados @ 5 for $4. that is hard to beat. But i love this guy too. I dont go anymore because i assume he only takes cash, which i no longer carry. Does he accept apple pay?

"Another sign of spring" and we get a freeze warning...
This is good news.
I was wondering where he was. Good news!!!

Their prices aren’t that good and their fruit / veg stand sits directly against their garbage dumpster. The stand man is also much friendlier.
