What is your favorite place to get hard to find produce and herbs?

Looking for chervil and its impossible to find. They dont have it at the Manhattan Fruit Exchange nor do they have it at Citerella (they carried it a few weeks ago but haven't carried it since). I tried Whole Foods and Fairway. Still nothing. I looked through every booth at the Greenmarket in Union Square. Though I could have missed it. Could Zabars have it? Or has anyone seen it at the Greenmarket? Im incredibly annoyed and am trying to avoid substitutions

    You can get chervil at the Union Square Market on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. "Two Guys from Woodbridge" always have it at a reasonable price.

      Did you try the info booth at the Union Square Greenmarket? Or asking a farmer there if they could bring some in/grow some, or maybe why you can't find it?

      Eataly might have it, they have some more obscure stuff sometimes.
