Description

Feast Down East is reviving its Senior Mobile Market Voucher Program to deliver fresh, local produce straight to seniors in New Hanover, Brunswick, and Pender counties—because healthy food shouldn’t be out of reach. With support from the Duke Energy Foundation and Catherine Kennedy Home Foundation, this mobile market brings affordable nutrition to older adults struggling with food insecurity, even when SNAP benefits fall short. Every day, they roll up to neighborhoods across the Cape Fear region, turning farmers’ markets into lifelines—and building stronger ties between local growers and the community they serve.
