Our Seasonal Farmstand

April - November

First Farmstand of 2024: Wednesday April 17th

Raleigh City Farm hosts a Pay-What-You-Can Farmstand from April-November where members of the Raleigh community can purchase produce.

We offer fresh produce at TWO locations!

At Raleigh City Farm, located at 800 N Blount St., Wednesdays, 4 - 7pm (hours change in November)

At The Salvation Army in the front garden, located at 902 Wake Forest Rd., Monday through Friday, 2:30-5:30pm

This increases the impact of our mission to connect and nourish our community through regenerative agriculture. We are grateful for the support of Bank of America whose generous grant makes this program possible. 

Now more than ever, it's important to know that our food is coming from a reliable, local source.

Our harvest includes items like*:

 

Basil
Cabbage
Collards
Eggplant
Herbs
Mustard Greens

Okra
Peppers
Squash
Tomatoes
Bouquets
…and more!

 

* We’ll update this list through the season. For the most up-to-date harvest menu each week, follow our Instagram stories. Harvest amounts are limited; sold on a first come, first served basis.

Show up on Wednesdays between 4-7pm (or between 2-5pm in November only)

Shop our fresh, local produce grown right on our urban farm. We’re located at 800 N. Blount Street in downtown Raleigh. Walk on to the property via the driveway on Franklin Street and join us at the farm stage to make your purchase.

Parking Notes: Consider taking an eco-friendly approach by walking or biking. Please do not park in the Person Street Plaza spaces unless you are patronizing those businesses. Non-permit parking is available along Blount, Franklin, and Person Streets.
