GrowNYC Fresh Food Box Program Sign-Up
Oct 18, 2018
Hunter College has partnered with GrowNYC–the sustainability resource for New Yorkers– to introduce the Fresh Food Box Program. The Fresh Food Box Program at Hunter College is a food access initiative that enables under-served communities to purchase fresh, healthy, and primarily regionally-grown produce, well below traditional retail prices. Fresh fruits and vegetables will be available to students, staff and faculty for just $14 a week!
Here's how it works:
- Pay $14 in cash for next week’s share
- Return the following week to pick up your share containing 10-15 pounds of fresh, high-quality produce
How to Sign-Up for the Fresh Food Box Program
Sign-ups for Fresh Food Box will begin on Thursday, October 18 at the 3rd Floor Counter, North Building. Sign up to receive a free produce bag and tote bag!
Delivery/Pick-Up Information:
- Day: Each Thursday, beginning October 25th (Unless the campus is closed)
- Time: 3:30 – 6:30 pm
- Location: 3rd Floor Counter, North Building
For more information, please contact Teneia Wooten, Director, Student Activities, at twooten@hunter.cuny.edu.

In an effort to provide access to nutritious food choices to all students, we offer vouchers to students who cannot afford to cover the cost of the Fresh Food Box.
