Traditional grocery store pricing is turned upside down at the Community Food Club – fruits and vegetables are the lowest priced items while processed foods and snack items are among the highest priced. This incentivizes healthy options and increases access to fresh, nutritious foods on a consistent basis.

Fruits and vegetables make up 58% of the items members select – double the amount distributed by traditional grocery stores.
