Get Help: Fresh Connect

United Way of Bucks County supports free mobile farm markets for the community.

Fresh Connect is a Free Mobile Farm Market that provides fresh produce to low-income families and seniors at four locations throughout Bucks County each week. 

The program is a collaboration of United Way of Bucks County, Bucks County Opportunity Council, St. Mary Medical Center, Rolling Harvest Food Rescue, and Philabundance.

HOW TO GET HELP

Any resident of Bucks County who is food insecure can participate.  Advanced registration online is required. If you already have a keycard, simply start bringing it to all future distributions. 

Once your application has been approved, you will be given a keycard on-site at Fresh Connect. Only one person per income eligible household can participate and eligible families must earn 300% or less of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). 

No ID or verification is needed, and participation does not affect your government benefits.

It is our obligation to make the safety of our clients, volunteers, and staff our top priority. 

Please visit bcoc.org or call 215-345-8175, Option 1, for Fresh Connect up-to-date closure information.

For vehicles representing multiple households, a keycard will need to be scanned for each household. Each individual household you pick up for must register separately and provide you with their keycard. 

Each vehicle can pick up for a maximum of four (4) households. 

Please have your trunk or tailgate cleared so that food may be placed in safely and efficiently. Food will be place directly into the trunk of the vehicle. Driver’s windows must be down and with all occupants wearing face coverings. If you are unable to open your trunk or if it is not cleared, you will be asked to load your food independently. 

To minimize traffic and waiting times, please do not arrive more than 30 minutes before the distribution start time. If arriving prior to start time, staff are not responsible for maintaining line spots. In Warminster Community Park, park attendees have the right of way. Please do not block any pedestrian or bike walkways. 

Fresh Connect and the distribution organizers reserve the right to refuse service to individuals who do not comply with the rules and regulations established for each drive-thru food distribution.
