Food Tech Stories: Food On Wheels Can Solve Last Mile Problem

Too Long; Didn't Read

An old bus converted into a mobile organic food market brings fresh produce to low-income neighbourhoods in Toronto. The market was made from an old bus that was given by the Toronto Transit Commission. The bus is loaded with fresh seasonal produce, it lets Torontonians buy fresh healthy fruit and vegetables even if they don't have grocery stores in the area. Since the costs required by the transport must be dealt with, food costs aren't a lot lower than what may be found in a store. At least families have the opportunity to purchase higher-quality, nutrient-dense food when the bus visits.
