Latest Projects
The YouthBucks project offers coupons to children and teens so they can purchase farm-fresh fruits and vegetables at our farmer's markets. These young participants come to the market on field trips arranged by Harvest Home in coordination with local schools, Day Camp organizations, and other youth programs located in high-need New York City neighborhoods.
Interesting Fact
To ensure the produce is affordable, our farmer's markets accept electronic benefit transfers (EBTs), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (SNAP), and Women Infant and Children and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program vouchers (WIC-FMNP), as well as New York City subsidy coupons for low-income residents.
