Last saturday I went to what I think is one of the few organic farmers markets in Buenos Aires. It's in the neighborhood of chacarita (next to a run down train station and down the street from a cemetery!) near palermo Hollywood. It's like a big railroad warehouse, filled with nice people ('sentimiento' cooperative) selling their fresh produce, cheese, milk, granola, pies, etc. They also have a few tables to sit down, perfect for breakfast and lunch. It's a very friendly environment, and it's quite affordable. Don't forget to bring your re-usable groceries bag!
