NCFST Mobile Market returns to Wake Forest Thursday

The Northern Community Food Security Team (NCFST) and Ripe for Revival are pleased to provide a mobile grocery store across from the Northern Regional Center, 350 E. Holding Ave., on the second and fourth Thursday of each month from 3-4:30 p.m. – rain or shine. Offering fruits, vegetables, meat, and dairy from local and regional farmers on a pay-what-you-can scale, the NCFST Mobile Market returns to Wake Forest on Thursday, June 12.

As a bonus, El Centro will be onsite providing blood pressure screenings, while an El Pueblo, Inc. representative will distribute information on resources available to the Hispanic and Latino Community.

Open to everyone, NCFST’s pay-what-you-can mobile grocery store makes fresh and local produce, proteins, dairy, eggs, and other food products accessible and affordable to all, regardless of their budget. When shopping, there are limits on the amount of protein, dairy, and eggs a consumer can purchase, but no limits on produce.

At checkout, shoppers are given a suggested total. They can then pay the suggested amount, pay more (pay it forward), or pay less (pay what you can). Both cash and card payments are accepted.
