Mission Statement
We aim to improve the lives of disadvantaged people in Baltimore City by enabling residents of Baltimore's food deserts to make healthy eating choices. By making fresh produce available to the residents of food deserts, we hope to empower these communities to live healthy lifestyles.
Description
We are running a produce stand in West Baltimore that gives customers fresh fruits and vegetables free of charge. By making fresh produce available in food deserts, neighborhoods with little access to fresh foods because of a lack of vendors, we enable residents to take control of their eating habits. This opens the door to a healthier life style for both individuals and for the whole community
Every hour volunteered helps, and together we can help end food deserts in Baltimore City.
