Access to Fresh leverages the expertise and experience of its founders to drive community enhancement through innovative food solutions. Partnering with us gives you and your organization the opportunity to contribute to a wide range of impactful initiatives.
The successful transition from Dube’s Mobile Market to its Farm and Market and positive cash flow for seven consecutive quarters indicates a successful business model with sustainable growth that will provide ongoing baseline funding for Access to Fresh to operate without relying solely on grants.
The sustainable model for Access to Fresh has already been proven through Dube’s Farm and Market’s community involvement and impact, particularly through initiatives like doubling SNAP benefits and targeted produce distribution programs for food pantries, seniors and students.
Our mobile market and its focus on making fresh food accessible—especially to low-income families—while integrating educational components present a direct avenue to address food deserts and improve food literacy.
Established relationships with health organizations, educational institutions, and local farms enhance the potential for wide-reaching impact and successful program execution. Our partnerships with entities like the University of Florida IFAS and AdventHealth for educational and nutritional programs will be more easily expanded due to the charitable organization status of Access to Fresh.
Plans to expand our mobile market operations and accept healthcare benefits highlight our forward-thinking approach to increasing the accessibility and affordability of fresh produce. This strategy underscores our belief in the principle that food is medicine, aiming to integrate nutritional wellness into the healthcare ecosystem, thereby improving community health outcomes through better dietary choices.
