Lightfoot Market

26 Bridge Street , Brooklyn, NY, United States

Lightfoot Market is a pop-up event for sustainable businesses and conscientious shoppers. We created this market to showcase vendors and products with a strong commitment to sustainability. While that word gets thrown around a lot, to us “sustainability” refers to a company’s environmental, social and economic initiatives that not only create successful long-term business goals, but also contribute to the well-being of our planet and its communities.

You’ll find thoughtfully curated goods, food, speakers and more.
