HEAL Farm Market - Parkview Greenhouse

HEAL (Healthy Eating Active Living) is sponsored by Parkview Health and the St. Joseph Community Health Foundation to increase food access in Fort Wayne. The markets aim to provide affordable, fresh produce while also encouraging healthy eating habits.  HEAL Markets are unique in their double-up program, which matches SNAP, WIC, and Senior produce voucher purchases. This means that individuals using these vouchers can buy twice as much fresh produce. Besides the double-up program, HEAL Markets also accept Veggie RX, a Parkview Health program, and standard payment methods like cash, credit, and debit. The markets have been shown to increase access to fresh locally grown produce and produce consumption in the surrounding neighborhoods, according to the St. Joseph Community Health Foundation.
