The ‘Mobile Market’ is now back on the road, bringing fresh produce directly to people struggling to make ends meet.
The market arrives with local vegetables and snack packs for children, free of charge, at 14 locations in Sarnia-Lambton each week. Last year it delivered 5,000 pounds of produce to about 900 people each week.
The Inn of the Good Shepherd runs the operation with help from area farmers, greenhouses and gardeners, Pembina, Noelle’s Gift and others.
