kellyn food access

The objective of the Kellyn Food Access Initiative is to ensure
that each neighborhood has healthy whole food options on
a year-round basis, sourced as locally as possible, that are convenient,
accessible and affordable. The initiative supports the economic growth
of local farmers; engages with the neighborhood community,
local healthcare systems, and provides a strong neighborhood
infrastructure as one of the four initiatives within the
​Healthy Neighborhood Immersion Strategy.

"EAT REAL FOOD" MARKET SCHEDULE

The neighborhood infrastructure includes weekly visits by the “Eat Real Food” Mobile Market and the delivery of fresh, local produce to corner stores, small grocery stores and restaurants in the neighborhoods that we serve.  Neighborhoods are primarily defined as elementary school catchment areas; where seniors, families, individuals, community organizations and businesses can share relationships and support.  Our weekly sites include sampling, nutritional education, and recipes.
