Our Produce

You can see our current week's harvest on our farmer notes page.
Please always to remember to BRING YOUR OWN BAGS!

What’s in a veggie share?

LARGE veggie shares typically include 10-14 different items each week, generally enough for a family of four, or a vegetarian couple.

We also offer SMALL shares, which are more manageable for one-or-two-person households, or those who don't eat a lot of veggies. These shares typically include 8-11 different items and are more manageable for single households or those who don’t eat a lot of veggies.  Know that each week there is an exchange bin set out for members to make use of. A member may place an unwanted item(s) inside and exchange for something else that a previous member has left. This is especially helpful when a member receives an item or 2 that they can’t or don’t prefer to eat and they can get more of what they desire!

 

Where and when do we pick up our veggies each week?

Members collect their food at our distribution site between 4:30 and 7:00 p.m. every Tuesday. The site is located in the courtyard of the Church of St. Paul & St. Andrew, 263 West 86th Street at West End Avenue (look for the green entrance gate on WEA). On rainy days we distribute at the same location but indoors.
