Mission Statement:

The Farm Fresh Mobile Market is a sustainable project designed to counteract the inaccessibility of nutritious food in the inner-city of Syracuse through the provision of high-quality, reasonably priced, fresh fruits and vegetables to residents at accessible locations. The market also provides information that encourages healthy nutrition.

Market Background:

The Farm Fresh Mobile Market is a collaboration of community residents, funders, educators, and farmers to help address the problem of food disparity with the initial focus being on the Southside of Syracuse where access to grocery stores is extremely limited. It is the intent of the Market's committee to expand to include other neighborhoods with poor access to grocery stores and fresh produce.

The Farm Fresh Mobile Market was inspired by a similar project launched in Oakland, California by The People’s Grocery. The philosophy behind this project is to bring fresh food and educational information about healthy living to communities lacking the resources to live healthy lives.

The Mobile Market is run by the Southside Interfaith CDC. Currently the project's partners include the Central New York Regional Market Authority, the Allyn Foundation, Onondaga County Department of Aging and Youth, SUNY Morrisville and the Gifford Foundation. We are constantly looking for new partners and creative ways to better connect with  and serve the community. If you would like to be involved please contact Diane Turner, President of the Southside Interfaith CDC, at (315) 475-8316 x319.
