Charlton Hospital Market
 		 Ruggles Park, along Pine Street near Seabury Street

Angelo Ferraro has been selling vegetables on weekend mornings from his stand on Bedford Street across from Oak Grove Avenue for the past forty years.

Some of the produce he grows in the small garden plot next to the barn behind his house, the rest he picks up from a farmer in Somerset.

Everyone swears that he sells the sweetest corn and the best tomatoes, all displayed on a pushcart that he purchased nearly 20 years ago from a man in Chelsea.
