GrowNYC - We're working towards a healthier, greener, more resilient New York

GrowNYC’s comprehensive programs work together to educate, empower, and support New Yorkers to act against climate change and protect the future of our city and our planet.

We provide support and education opportunities to the regional farmers who grow and produce the healthy fruits, vegetables, and other fresh products that New Yorkers purchase at GrowNYC Greenmarkets.

New Yorkers can then dispose of food scraps at 50+ Food Scrap Drop-off sites. The scraps are processed into compost for community gardens and urban farms. These green spaces improve quality of life with more trees and plants to filter the air and provide space for neighbors to grow their own edible plants.

We're working towards a healthier, greener, more resilient New York and your support makes our programs possible. Donate today to help make change for our communities and for our planet.   Earth Month Climate Action Looking for a way to get your hands dirty taking action against climate change?
