I’m talkin’ waaaaaay downtown…

YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL!!!

What do we have going on down here besides the tourist hot spots of the Financial District and the South Street Seaport, you ask??

There are so many different things to do around here and so many special deals that are happening on the daily. One can make a whole “outing” out of a trip to provisions.

Want something REALLY local?… South Street is Barbara G. Mensch’s evocative tribute to the lost world of Lower Manhattan’s Fulton Fish Market. This book gives great insight into how life used to be down by NYC Historical South Street Seaport and Brooklyn Bridge. As a young photographer in the early 1980s, Barbara Mensch bonded with this particular group of “authentic New Yorkers,” becoming a confidante for their life stories, which were often filled with hardship, mystery, and misadventures. These striking photographs capture the unique personality and fierce secrecy of their vibrant working-class culture.

SIGNED COPIES ARE SOLD AT provisions!!!!

Pictured back when it was the Fish Market. I remember the days the Fish Market was down here. Maybe not the days pictured here…. but people still ask for the Fish Market. Someone just came in today asking if it still exists down here.

These photographs are Barbara Mensch’s tribute to the lost world of Lower Manhattan’s Fulton Fish Market. For more than a century, a tightly knit community of workingmen, many of them immigrants or children of immigrants, thrived in their nocturnal jobs as fishmongers under the base of the Brooklyn Bridge.  Resistant to government regulations and corporate encroachment these men worked in a closed, internally-policed world that was deeply hostile to outsiders.

Many of the images were taken in 1979-1983, a time of profound change in the political and economic landscape of Lower Manhattan. The waterfront below the Brooklyn Bridge was targeted for economic revival, spurred by the demolition of important locales in the fish market, existing piers, working storefronts, saloons and hotels to make room for new commercial spaces, including a shopping mall.

Want your taste buds to experience unique flavors of chocolate? Come to provisions…

BREAD & CHOCOLATE Bar is just one of the many unique Theo Chocolate Bars we carry. Theo calls this bar one of their “Fantasy Flavors.” Other Fantasy Flavor’s made by Theo that provisions carries are FIG AND FENNEL and HAZELNUT CRUNCH.

And quite frankly, who wouldn’t want to try these Fantasy Flavors?? The BREAD AND CHOCOLATE is described as “an innovative twist on a traditional pairing, featuring dark chocolate with buttery, toasted artisan breadcrumbs and the perfect amount of salt.” My response… “Uhhh, YUM!”

Even their “classic collection” of flavors are exciting! Chile, Mint, and Cherry Almond, OH MY! Many of these chocolate bars are vegan, dairy free, gluten free, and soy free while still maintaining an AMAZING TASTE!

THEO CHOCOLATE IS DELICIOUS fair trade, organic chocolate, made from the bean in a beautiful factory in Seattle!

I had a customer come in today looking for local, organic honey because his wife is suffering from allergies and he wanted to buy her some honey at provisions to help her out with her stuffy, sneezy, sleepy, (she is starting to sound like one of the seven dwarfs)…. symptoms.

What a good hubby!

He is not the first one to inquire if we had locally-made honeys for sale for that very reason.

I didn’t know this until last summer… A natural  remedy for allergies is honey.

According to the article “Benefits of Honey for Allergy Relief” written by Tom Ogren, “Honey contains bits and pieces of pollen and honey, and as an immune system booster, it is quite powerful.” If someone is, for example, is experiencing an allergic reaction to clover, local honey will contain bits of clover and the honey will react as an immune booster!! In order to get these good effects of honey, take a couple of full teaspoons a day.

CLICK HERE to check out our honey selections…

“WHERE CAN I GET ME SOME GOOD LOCALLY MADE HONEY, YOU ASK???”

Right here at provisions.

CLICK HERE to check out our selection of NY STATE honey or stop by our store!

I read on wholeliving.com that “daily exposure to a small amount of an allergen can desensitize the body, allowing you to better resist it, explains Evan Fleischmann, N.D., board member of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians. In this case, that allergen culprit is pollen — the very same ingredient bees use to make their honey.” We sell the raw stuff here at provisions as well.

Also a good idea…  HONEY AND PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH! Oh man, I make these for lunch here at the shop.

We even sell RAW ALMOND BUTTER!!

MMM, soo gooooood!

Let me know how the honey works out for all of you poor allergy ridden peeps

I HOPE THE HONEY HELPS!
