Pay-What-You-Can Farmstand

  • Raleigh City Farm 800 North Blount Street Raleigh, NC, 27604 United States (map)

Raleigh City Farm hosts a Pay-What-You-Can Farmstand from April-November where members of the Raleigh community can purchase produce. 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 with what’s growing on the farm. 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.


How It Works

Show up on Wednesdays between 4-7pm

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

Choose your fresh veggies & specialty items

Tell our helpful farm volunteer what you would like to purchase and they’ll bag your selections and hand them to you. If you’re a Cultivator Club member, you'll receive your specialty item(s) of the week!

Pay What You Can!

Step over to our checkout area and pay with your credit card with our zero contact point of sale system. Credit card or cash accepted.

How “Pay-What-You-Can” Works:

  • Pay less than the suggested price. For up to $10 worth of fresh produce, or…

  • Pay it forward! Consider paying more than the suggested price as an additional donation to support RCF.

Enjoy fresh, local food!

When you purchase produce from our Farmstand, you’re making a safe, reliable, and healthy choice for yourself — and you’re helping us share it forward with neighbors in need.

Share It Forward

We are proud to announce that Raleigh City Farm will be sharing a portion of our produce with local nonprofits that address food insecurity and access. Visit our Farmshare page to learn more about our non-profit partners!
