ABOUT US
At the Mobile Food Market we believe everyone deserves dignified access to fresh fruits and vegetables.To us, access means that people have enough money to buy food, people have transportation options to get to a food source, and that people can buy fruits and vegetables they are familiar with. People experience different degrees of difficulties with accessing healthy food. We know that individuals with mobility issues, seniors living alone, low-income families and single parents are amongst those at a higher risk of not getting the food they need every day.
what others say
“Thank you for coming to North End Dartmouth. Tonight, I was able to add some delicious, fresh broccoli to the chicken Alfredo I made for dinner. I’ve been finding it so hard to work veggies into the meals that I make for my family because of soaring prices at the grocery stores. This is much needed and greatly appreciated."
Sharon Himmelman, Dartmouth North Market Customer
The Mobile Food Market has helped me manage my extremely tight budget while still being able to access healthy food. I have found shopping at the market to be dignified, supportive, and fun. Sometimes the market was the only reason I was able to have food on my table and I am beyond grateful for this program.”
