GrowNYC is monitoring the ongoing federal shutdown and the potential service interruptions to food assistance programs such as SNAP EBT. We will continue to monitor developments closely and provide updates as new information becomes available. At this time, November SNAP EBT benefits have not been distributed.

As normal, customers with funds available can spend SNAP EBT at all GrowNYC Greenmarket and Farmstand locations. Customers will still receive the Health Buck incentive coupons when shopping with SNAP EBT. All other incentives, such as eWIC and WIC & Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program, and Fresh Connect, can be spent as usual.

For more information on the impacts of the federal shutdown on your benefits, please visit the appropriate agency websites listed below.

  • No payments can be issued starting November 1, even if they include prior month benefits. 
  • Benefits that have been issued but have not yet been spent will still be available to clients in November. 
  • November benefits will not be available until the federal government authorizes the release of these funds by NYS OTDA. At this time, cash benefits and supportive service payments will continue to be issued to eligible households without interruption.
  • The USDA, which administers the SNAP program, has reminded States that there is no provision or allowance under current law for States to cover the cost of SNAP benefits and be reimbursed.

  • Los beneficios que se hayan emitido pero que aún no se hayan gastado seguirán estando disponibles para los clientes en noviembre.
  • Los beneficios de noviembre no estarán disponibles hasta que el gobierno federal autorice la liberación de estos fondos por parte de la NYS OTDA. En este momento, los beneficios en efectivo y los pagos por servicios de apoyo se seguirán emitiendo a los hogares elegibles sin interrupción.
  • El USDA, que administra el programa SNAP, ha recordado a los estados que la legislación actual no prevé ninguna disposición o asignación para que los estados cubran el costo de los beneficios del SNAP y se les reembolse.

GrowNYC Remembers Dr. Arline Bronzaft

October 30, 2025

 

GrowNYC joins so many across New York City in mourning the passing of Dr. Arline Bronzaft, a longtime member of our Board of Directors since 1984 and a steadfast advocate for a more livable city.

For decades, Dr. Bronzaft worked to bring attention to a vital yet often unseen environmental issue: noise pollution. Her research as a Professor at Lehman College (CUNY) demonstrated how chronic noise impacts learning, mental health, and overall well-being. She helped New Yorkers, and city leaders alike, recognize that sound is not just a part of the urban experience, but a matter of public health.

Her influence reached far beyond the classroom. Dr. Bronzaft’s expertise guided major policy efforts, including her contributions to the 2007 revision of the New York City Noise Code. She also co-authored Why Noise Matters (2011), a work that continues to shape global understanding of noise as an environmental concern.

We are deeply grateful for her years of service. Dr. Bronzaft’s legacy will continue to inspire our work toward a greener, healthier, and more peaceful New York City.
