Market Schedule and Upcoming Events
Improving health and wellness in our communities!
Join us in contributing to the greater good.
The Community Chest is a charitable fund created by Project new Village to support the purchasing power at the People’s Produce Mobile Farmers Market (MFM). The People’s Produce MFM serves the Good Food District, a region consisting of Southeastern San Diego, National City, Barrio Logan and Lemon Grove. This is an opportunity for everyone to contribute to the greater good!
For every $10 donated, a $10 coupon can be given to a People’s Produce customer to purchase fresh local produce from the truck.
WIN-WIN FOR ALL
Supporting Community Chest allows us to:
01 Support Local Food Growers
We are able to pay fair price to our local food growers, ensuring they are able to provide ethically grown produce using sustainable farming practices.
02 Gain Valuable Information
In exchange for the $10 coupons, MFM customers take a quick survey that gives us valuable insight to better support the communities we serve.
03 Help Those in Need
Coupons provide necessary aid for families needing help in affording our healthy locally-sourced produce.
INDIVIDUAL GIVING
Community Support

CORPORATE/ORGANIZATION GIVING
Sponsoring Community Chest
Each month, over 500 produce coupons are given to customers in need to produce fresh local produce from our People’s Produce farmers market. An estimated 90% of our customers rely on these coupons, with nearly 70% of those coupon users reporting they have experienced food insecurity due to economic stress. That’s why supporting our Community Chest fund is critical in helping families throughout Southeastern San Diego.
