While Grub Street isn’t in the habit of celebrating — or even acknowledging — made-up food holidays, free macarons are a different story altogether. Each year, on the first day of spring, François Payard mobilizes New York bakeries to give away French macarons in honor of City Harvest. All you have to do is announce at the shop that you’re there for Macaron Day NYC. Here are all of this year’s participants:

Bouchon Bakery
Bisous Ciao Macarons
Chantilly
Eclair Bakery
Epicerie Boulud
Francois Payard Bakery
FP Patisserie
Macaron Café
Macaron Parlour
MadMac Macaron
Mille-Feuille Bakery
Spot Dessert Bar
Sugar & Plumm
Todd English Food Hall
Woops! Unmistakably Delicious
