Community Transformation Grant was used to train 5 low income individuals who live in public housing to become self sufficient emerging food system leaders and increase access and consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables to low-wealth individuals. This pilot program was a partnership with Bountiful Cities and Buncombe County Department of Social Services. We piloted a farmer market program with Gardens United and Ujaama Freedom Market to sell fresh produce on site at the Buncombe County Health Department. The intent was to increase consumption, awareness and access of fresh fruits and vegetables to folks who are served by DSS.This program benefited 5 emerging food systems leaders and approximately 250 low-wealth individuals to increase access to affordable fruits and vegetables.$16,333$16,333
