GrowNYC

GrowNYC is the organization that manages Greenmarket in A firm Andy: what are new British PM’s plans?. The episode says GrowNYC vets farms, decides when to create new neighborhood markets, and built a system that lets people use food welfare benefits across vendors.

In the wiki, GrowNYC is the operating layer behind Farmers Market Urbanism. The market network’s durability depends not only on good produce or neighborhood demand, but on governance, vendor standards, payment infrastructure, and relationships between farmers, shoppers, and restaurants.
