StreetLevel: Fruits and Veggies in Bushwick

A poster on BushwickBK calls the opening of Mr. Kiwi’s, a new grocery store on Broadway and Myrtle, “probably the most exciting new business to open in our little corner of Bushwick in the three years we’ve been here.” The store is stocking a decent, well-priced selection of fresh produce, which many folks on the site say is in short supply in Bushwick. The city backs up those claims: A study by the Department of Mental Health and hygiene found the neighborhood has a low supply of fresh produce and low-fat milk, according to an article in Crain’s.
