BRIDGING HEALTH THROUGH ACCESS The Green Farmers Market represents a clear commitment to providing healthy alternatives for the South Bronx community. Recognizing the challenges residents face in accessing nutritious food, the program actively offers fresh, local produce as a direct counterpoint to less healthy, more readily available options. This commitment extends beyond just product availability; it includes making these alternatives affordable through various payment programs and empowering individuals with the knowledge to prepare healthy meals via on-site cooking demonstrations. In essence, the market serves as a tangible expression of the hospital’s dedication to fostering a healthier community by ensuring better food choices are not just possible, but also practical and accessible.
