At Spectrum Health Center in West Philadelphia, The Food Trust runs a weekly farmers market every Wednesday at 52nd & Haverford Avenue.

Fresh Produce Access: Offers fruits and vegetables sourced from local farms.
Affordable Options: Accepts EBT/SNAP, WIC/senior checks, Food Bucks, and even Venmo and credit/debit cards.
Community Wellness: Hosts cooking demos and nutrition education sessions to promote healthy eating.
Senior-Friendly: Especially popular among older adults in the area for its convenience and affordability.
Health Integration: Aligns with Spectrum Health’s mission by treating food as medicine—supporting chronic disease prevention through diet.
