Please complete the Application/Assistance form after payment or if you just have questions, we will give a call after completion. Payment can be completed using the donation box on the right of this webpage or above.
WHO ARE WE: Central West Baltimore Buying Club is more than a virtual Fresh at the Avenue. It is an emerging initiative to bring residents a safe, affordable and community-powered shopping experience.
WHAT WE DO: Skip the grocery store and join our collective buying power to order directly from food distributors, businesses and local makers to increase affordability and reduce barriers to physical access. Prepare your medicine cabinet, stock up for the winter by pickling, canning, and preserving your produce by buying in bulk. Beat the national inflation by shopping with us!
MORE THAN PRODUCE: We provide direct delivery of produce and an ever-expanding selection of fruits, vegetables, herbal solutions, community vendors, recipes and other household goods. Deliveries currently go out Thursday-Saturdays 12pm-6pm. Our goal is to get the weekly participation up to the volume of allowing us to deliver more days out of the week. Currently our goal is to utilize this program, applying for grants, and fundraising to procure our own van to employ our community to deliver these orders.

Paid Annual: $75.00 annual dues grants you access to free delivery within West Baltimore for the year, in-store discounts, access to recipes & other health/food justice resources and more (Members outside of West Baltimore may have small fee, contact us for details).
