FOODLINK INC

Foodlink's community health programs support food access and education through a variety of programs. The curbside market program brings fresh, affordable food to low-income neighborhoods across rochester through mobile markets that make weekly stops at affordable housing sites, senior centers, health clinics, and community centers. This program promotes food access by serving areas that lack traditional grocery stores and by accepting benefits such as snap, wic, double up food bucks, and more. The foodlink community farm is the largest urban farm in rochester at 2.3 acres and consists of community garden plots that serve over 100 local families, a commercial growing operation, an edible education center for school and community programming, a greenhouse for year-round growing, and a public pocket park. Foodlink's community-focused initiatives also include nutrition education, food safety classes, and benefits navigation support, all provided across a variety of settings in the community. In fiscal year 2025, foodlink performed 31,932 transactions at the curbside market, produced 3,544 pounds of produce at the community farm, and reached 3,349 people through nutrition education workshops and demos and 773 through benefits navigation support.
