Invest in local food production
We know a food system is only as strong as its producers. We crop plan, invest in their operations, and pay fair prices so they can keep producing and providing for our city.
How your box builds a local food systemWe bring fresh, locally grown and produced food right to your front door. Simple, fast and healthy.
Good for you, good for Philly.
Philly's New Way to Grocery
I love sharing food with people. It is my greatest joy in life.
I started out urban farming in West Philly, meeting my neighbors and enjoying good food together. Philly Foodworks is building a local food system where people can enjoy the best food our region has to offer and know the people who grow, pack, and deliver it to their door.
Our weekly online market and farm share serves greater Philadelphia, bringing foods from across the region to kitchens across the region. Every time you shop at Philly Foodworks, you are building a local food system, supporting your neighbors, and creating a more sustainable society.
We want a new food system for our city. We do not believe in exploiting people or land, and we want food from sustainable farms grown by people who are paid a fair price. Healthy food should be a utility available to everyone in our city, because it is a right, not a privilege. Our food system needs to be sustainable, regenerative farms, without food waste, and with zero-waste packaging.

Our Network

Our market feels different because it is different. Behind every loaf, jar, bunch, and bottle is a producer or maker we know and trust. We're proud to know them and proud to help bring their food to your table.
