Each year thousands of pounds of produce is grown at our urban farm on Hawthorne Avenue. Our urban farm produces, quite literally, tons of fresh fruits and vegetables each year right here in Newark's South Ward. Lucky for Newark residents, all of those delicious goods can be purchased through our Youth Farm Stands.
With the global COVID-19 pandemic, good nutrition and access to healthy food is more important than ever. We want to continue providing fresh fruits and veggies to our community. With that in mind, we will still be operating our Youth Farm Stands for the 2020 season, however, with some modifications to ensure the safety of staff and visitors.
When visiting our Farm Stands, please be sure to wear your mask and maintain social distancing protocol, with only one customer being served at a time. Please refrain from touching the produce—one of our staff will pick produce, pack, and weigh your purchase while another will ring up and take your payment.
