Peaches and Greens
Healthy Food Accessibility The Peaches & Greens produce truck operates three seasons out of the year, delivering fresh fruits and vegetables to happy residents in the CDC service area. The goal of this initiative is to provide families in the central Woodward community greater access to quality produce while promoting healthy food choices. We believe that healthy food, good eating habits and access to produce are all foundational to healthy and holistic development of a neighborhood. Our truck travels up and down the neighborhood streets like an ice cream truck, but peddles delicious and nutritious produce, a healthy alternative to sugary snacks that often comprise a less than ideal diet. Serving many home-bound seniors, the truck is a welcome throwback to the quality service of days gone by. Recent Media Coverage Have you seen the recent news coverage of the Produce Truck?
