From our shoppers: Our patrons and their communities, whom we serve, are why we are here. Some shoppers' reactions to the market:
"As an older person I'm trying to eat healthier and am usually reluctant to try new things but this kale salad is delicious. Now I have to go buy kale to make this at home. This market is a blessing." -Shopper, Vine City
"I'm not a Saturday girl but I come out for this!" -Shopper, Vine City
"We didn't have fruits and vegetables for years; we're so glad you're here." -Shopper, Vine City
"My market experience was wonderful! I was really inspired by the low-cost, high-quality fruit and vegetables made available to an under served community. I hope that AMM is able to continue to create positive change next spring." -Shopper, Mechanicsville
"...the one thing that stood out to me was how easy the salad and smoothie making were. I always think of foods that are healthy and tasty to be time-consuming. However the chef and my 6 year old proved me otherwise." -Shopper, Mechanicsville
"I also really liked that the kids were able to plant their own vegetables, my daughter has hers sitting in her window." -Shopper, Bankhead
From our volunteers: Our volunteers are an integral part of our operation - we would not be able to run the market without you! Thank you for all of the hours you put into the Atlanta Mobile Market and for providing the following testimonials: "The hands-on nature of the cooking demonstration enabled us to talk candidly with members of the community about their meals at home and opened up the floor to discussing healthy eating practices." -Gabi S
"It was great having the opportunity to spread the word about fruits, vegetables and meal planning using MyPlate with students and their families in a super fun environment!" -Emily V
