Mobile Market
Mobile Market is an OCCHD program housed within Community Health Engagement. The goal of mobile market is to increase and improve access to fresh fruits and vegetables in areas that could be considered food deserts or are structurally disadvantaged and under-resourced. Increasing access and consumption to fresh produce will lead to better health outcomes among Oklahoma City County residents. There are no income requirements and no I.D. is needed to receive produce from a mobile market stop.
