Interesting Fact
GrowNYC’s Greenmarket program is the largest network of outdoor farmers markets in the country with over 50 market locations in all five boroughs with 24 of these markets operating year-round. With support from the Farmers Market Federation of NY, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the City Council, GrowNYC has established a national model for operating EBT at farmers markets, greatly expanding food access in New York City. In 2015, we processed over $918,000 in SNAP sales at Greenmarkets along with $298,000 in Health Bucks in partnership with the New York City Department of Health.
