MANILA, Philippines - Spend your next Saturday afternoon at the Greenfield Weekend Market at the Greenfield District Open Park. The Greenfield Weekend Market offers something for everyone with its varied food selections, fresh produce, fashion items, pet products, art, and musical performances. Here are five different ways to spend your day at the newest weekend market in town:

 1. Stock up on organic produce. The Greenfield Weekend Market is a great place to stock up on products for your healthy lifestyle. Refresh your pantry with organic fruits and vegetables or buy some potted basil, oregano or tarragon for your herb garden. Thinking of going on a juice cleanse? Stock up on bottled goodness right here.

 2. Have a picnic. The weekend market offers crunchy belly, ramen, Palestinian food, shawarma, Angus beef, lutong bahay, and other delicious savory choices. There’s freshly squeezed juice, cocktails, beer and fruit shakes. If you’re looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, you’ll also find cupcakes, pastries, muffins, cheesecakes and even mugcakes in a variety of flavors.

3.  Shop for art, have your portrait done. Greenfield Weekend Market’s participating galleries include One Manila Gallery, Kanto, and Art Without Boundaries. Some artists render works of art on the spot at the open field. Sit down for a portrait by one of the artists of Agos Kulay Manila, who will render your likeness in different styles and mediums, including chalk, charcoal, lead and watercolor.

4. Watch musical performances. Sit on the Bermuda grass, feel the cool breeze on your face, and sway your head to classic, jazz and contemporary tunes, performed by string quartets.

 5. Hunt for bargains. There is  an assortment of handmade accessories and apparel both for children and adults, pre-loved designer items, as well as home décor made with local indigenous weaves like Zamboanga’s Yakan and South Cotabato’s T’nalak. Book lovers will also rejoice at the selection of secondhand books, sold at P200  and below.
