Overview
Our Mobile Community Market successfully reaches many
underserved and low-income communities, with customers returning week after
week to collect fresh produce that they would not otherwise have access to. With the help of our farm and community partners, we
collect and purchase fresh food and staples and then redistribute them to
communities with limited access to healthy and nutritious food.
