our food box program
What are food boxes?
Each Food Box is $10 and includes 6–7 items. Accepted forms of payment include EBT/SNAP, cash, credit or debit card. Pick up at Schenectady Greenmarket on Sundays 10am–2pm, or request delivery!
The Food Box Program runs year round! You can sign up for the program at the Schenectady Greenmarket Table or online. Sign up happens on a continuing rolling basis
About The Program
This program was created for folks with limited financial resources. However, applications are open to anyone.
The program allows for a limited number of shares. Should the program fill up, preference will be given to those with the greatest need.
Sign up for the program
If you are selected for the program, you will receive an email with instructions on how to register for your chosen month or weeks, and eligible customers will receive a weekly order form. If you are not selected, you will have the option to join our waitlist and will be contacted if an opening becomes available.
Donate To The Food Boxes
Donating to the Food Box Program directly supports families in our community who rely on access to fresh, healthy, locally grown food. Your contribution helps us provide weekly boxes filled with produce from Schenectady Greenmarket farmers, ensuring that more households can enjoy nutritious, seasonal ingredients regardless of income. Every dollar goes toward expanding the program, reducing food insecurity, and strengthening our local food system. Thank you for helping us make fresh food accessible for all. One box is a $10 donation.
