The Sisters of Saint Joseph Network has hosted the seasonal market since 2012. This year they will feature produce from 12 local farms. Runs end of June - end of September and features produce grown by Little Italy teens in the SSJNN Urban Farm Project along with other local and regional farms. SNAP, WIC, and FMNP Senior Vouchers graciously accepted and matched to incentivize fresh and healthy eating. Credit cards also accepted.
“The need for more healthy, fresh, local food in a food desert that’s within the heart of the city. So we’re the only local market that doubles thanks to our donors. We were able to double our dollar match on Snap, Wick, and Senior FMNP vouchers, so that’s a big hit,” said Gretchen Gallagher Gurney, Neighborhood Manager of Little Italy.
