Get ready, get fresh.
New Roots is now accepting orders and inquiries for the 2019 Fresh Stop Markets.
New Roots' Fresh Stop Markets are bi-weekly fresh food markets that "pop-up" at local churches, community centers and businesses in neighborhoods without farm-fresh food, where people who subscribe for organic, local produce can collect their shares (bags). New Roots is a grassroots nonprofit organization that supports the markets, volunteer leaders, farmers and fundraising that make it happen.
Here’s how it works: Community members purchase shares of 8-10 varieties of seasonal produce in advance, which comes from local farmers who provide fresh, delicious and organic items. Share prices are determined on an income-sliding scale, and everyone gets the same food regardless of what you pay. You then pick up your share at your neighborhood Fresh Stop Market every other week, at the market of your choice. Pop-up markets in seven different Louisville neighborhoods means fresh food is closer to home. Shareholders and volunteers regularly describe this movement of Fresh Food For All as life-changing.
Call 502.509.6770, or email info@newroots.org, to join a Fresh Stop Market in your community ahead of the June kick-offs. We double SNAP Benefits, and accept debit/credit.
2019 Fresh Stop Markets are located in Berrytown, Shelby Park/Smoketown, Russell, Old Louisville, Hikes Point, Portland, and New Albany. Share prices are $6, $12, $25, or $40 based on your income and number of people in your household. Click here to see our PayMint scale.
Contribute or volunteer to New Roots to support this life-saving work! Click here if you are an individual. Click here if you are a business.

See Something Say Something!!!!
We all know that
illegal dumping--putting waste on property that is not licensed as a disposal
facility--is an eyesore that is expensive to clean up, diminishes quality of
life, discourages economic development and even sends plastic debris into our
waterways.
That's why people caught dumping along our
city's alleys, sidewalks, fields and roadsides are subject to fines and
impoundment of any vehicle used in the dumping. That's where citizens can help
with the problem. If you witness illegal dumping while it's happening, report
it.
We've developed a new online form you can use to tell us where
it happened, describe the vehicle(s) involved, preferably with license plate
number(s), and even upload pictures. Of course you can always call
Metro Call 311 or 574-5000. For more information about illegal dumping,
including a link to the reporting form, visit our illegal dumping webpage.
