GrowNYC Farmstand is part of a network of food access retail sites staffed and operated by GrowNYC. The food sold at Farmstand is grown by farmers in the Northeast and transparently sourced wholesale through GrowNYC’s Regional Food Hub. Please fill out the New GrowNYC Wholesale Producer Form to help us understand if this partnership would be a good fit. Once we have all of this information from you, we will be able to determine our next steps. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, or additional information you would like to provide.

FMNP checks can be used at all GrowNYC Greenmarket and Farmtand locations. Look for farmers displaying the FMNP authorization sign at their stand. All farmers who sell fresh fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, and herbs at Greenmarket are required to accept FMNP checks.

Under Greenmarket Rules, all producers who sell fresh fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, and herbs must be authorized to accept FMNP coupons through the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets (AGM) before June 1st. For Returning Farmers: If you received FMNP approval with a three-year agreement in 2024 or 2025 and remain in good standing with AGM, you do NOT need to submit a new application for 2026. In March, you’ll receive a reauthorization package from NY Agriculture & Markets with updated rules and signs for 2026. For New Farmers: You must submit a new FMNP application to AGM. Contact fai@grownyc.org for application instructions and deadlines.
