About us
Mission Statement: Combating food insecurity with healthy food access and education.
We do this by: taking our services directly into communities, providing healthy foods, and offering nutrition and health education. Our innovative mobile food markets and educational programs work to eliminate food and nutrition insecurity one community at a time.
Vision: To create a new future for families who are food insecure and empower them to live healthy.
The WELL FED solution is to mobilize food access and education. Our model works by taking fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains, meat, and dairy directly to families and communities struggling with food and nutrition insecurity. Our mobile pop-up market or pre-boxed approaches allow people to choose healthy options to cook with that support their immune system. Our partnerships with local farmers and wholesale grocers mean we are sourcing healthy food and supporting the local economy at the same time.

Testimonials
Stacy
The mobile market program helps to increase healthy items that are better and healthier for the individual that participates in the program. It also provides an opportunity for food assistance, nutrition education, and social gathering opportunities for participants.
Christian
This program helps with the essentials. People, especially those with big families, can use the money they’re [saving] on groceries somewhere else, like other bills.
Ms. Bumblebee
I do what I can to stay healthy, but with bills to pay, I have to choose between gas and medicine, without much left for food. I can buy packaged food because it’s cheap, but it’s the fresh food that I really miss, and Well Fed provides it.
Belinda
I haven’t missed a market for a year! I got diagnosed with diabetes in April so I’ve been learning a lot about how to treat it from Well Fed’s nutrition education each month. I feel better with access to healthy groceries and I know I’ll be getting better.
Catherine
I know the power of nutrition and that’s why I like this program. It’s the only free food program where I can get healthy food consistently. And I don’t have to leave my community to get it!
