[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work with families in Wards 7 and 8 and we partner with an organization that gives fresh, local produce away free or at almost no cost. They even deliver for free. Very few takers.[/quote] OP here. The markets I was referencing in NYC sell produce for significantly less than what the same produce costs in supermarkets. Certainly cheaper than Yes! Organic market. However, it is not free. Are individuals you work with responsible for feeding families, or are they, say, young, single and prefer not to cook? What are some reasons cited for lack of interest?[/quote]
