2. Mission  Increase access to healthy food  Promote health through education  Create jobs

3. Mission  Offer affordable, convenient, quality foods to all, promote community health through nutrition awareness and education, and enhance economic vitality through job creation

4. Social Goal  Serve communities who face barriers to healthy eating  Cost  Location  Time  Language  Cooking Skills

5. Social Goal We’re inspired by the mission to break down today’s key barriers to putting good, nutritious food on the table.  Cost: Our prices will beat most commercial grocery stores and are on par with the discount warehouse grocery chain Winco.  Location: Some of our customers are faced with long bus rides (sometimes four hours round trip!) to the nearest affordable grocery store, limiting their ability to make regular trips for fresh produce. By bringing the store directly to their neighborhood we increase their access to these delicious fruits and vegetables as well as pantry staples including beans, rice, olive oil, and more.  Time: In addition to cutting down the commute time for purchasing groceries, offerings like our “meal kits” make healthy meal preparation quick and convenient at prices as low as $2 per serving.
