Rockland County
Rockland County is a fast-growing community with deep cultural diversity and a rich agricultural history. While farmers markets and local producers help supply fresh foods, cost and access challenges still affect many residents. Project FoodBox partners with community organizations to ensure Rockland County families can enjoy consistent access to nutritious, locally sourced foods that support health and well-being.
Rockland County's Agricultural Heritage
Indigenous Munsee Lenape communities once cultivated beans, corn, and squash and gathered wild fruits and shellfish along the Hudson. As agriculture expanded under European settlement, orchards, dairies, and gardens filled Rockland’s hills and riverfronts. Today, agriculture plays a smaller role, yet its legacy endures in local markets and community gardens. Efforts continue to ensure that nutritious food is accessible to all residents across Rockland’s diverse communities.
