Our network of Greenmarket farmers markets and Farmstands, coupled with GrowNYC Wholesale, ensures that all New Yorkers have access to the freshest, healthiest local food.
GrowNYC Greenmarkets, Farmstands, and Fresh Food Box sites operate under very strict permits. From time to time, and where there is additional space, we are able to host City agencies and New York City-based non-profit organizations aligned with our mission and offering direct community services to conduct outreach activity as market guests.
Pre-approved market guests may distribute information and literature, and perform outreach to customers; guests cannot sell services, products, memberships, or merchandise, nor can guests solicit donations, collect signatures for petitions, promote campaigns or perform political lobbying activities. Guests must provide the required insurance, and bring any equipment needed (e.g. tables and chairs); we do not provide equipment, electricity, or facilities.
