Our network of farmers markets, Youthmarkets, Fresh Food Box pick-ups, and Greenmarket Co. ensures that all New Yorkers have access to the freshest, healthiest local food.
GrowNYC is the sustainability resource for New Yorkers: providing free tools and services anyone can use in order to improve our City and environment. #letsgrownyc
We blanket the five boroughs with resources like textile and food scrap collection, Stop 'N' Swaps, and free training to make waste reduction easy for all.
We build and rejuvenate community and school gardens in all 5 boroughs, and support even more gardens through volunteer days, technical assistance, school garden grants, and more.
We foster future environmental stewards by providing 30,000 children each year with programs that provide meaningful interactions with the natural environment.
While the checkered tablecloth and box of sparklers are critical, the real key to an exceptional Fourth of July celebration is decidedly the food.
On June 15th, GrowNYC's Project Farmhouse hosted the first in our Chef Seasonal Dinner Series with top chefs from Del Posto, Gramercy Tavern, Oceana, Gotham Bar and Grill, and Grand Banks.
From June 17th - 24th, GrowNYC Compost Program Participants will receive free compost when they drop off food scraps at participating Greenmarkets and Fresh Food Box locations throughout NYC.
Now what? We keep on moving forward.
Why bother? Because each person’s actions, decisions and behavior still matter.
