Tallahassee’s Southside Farmers Market and Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Rx Program is a great partnership of the city, Florida A&M University and Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare to provide access to affordable produce to residents in the area.
Every second Thursday from 3PM-7PM, the Walker Ford Community Center hosts the market, where folks can learn how to select and prepare foods in a cost-effective way and directly improve their health.
Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare provides tents, tables and chairs for the market and offers health screenings and cooking demonstrations, along with a $20 voucher for class participants to purchase beneficial fruit and vegetables.
