Green Cart Program

NYC Green Cart is an initiative centered around the creation of 1,000 new mobile food vending permits for carts that sell whole fresh fruits and vegetables (the “Green Carts”) in select New York City neighborhoods that currently have the least availability of these products. The purpose of this initiative is to promote improved nutrition in low income NYC neighborhoods through increased consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables. The goals are dependent on the successful introduction and support of Green Cart entrepreneurs in the targeted neighborhoods.
