Celebrate with us as we honor our transition to our new market space this weekend!
If you have not heard, our weekly Pop Up Market has undergone a significant change into the Cherry Hill Market at BYI Marketplace. To celebrate we will be holding a grand opening complete with a DJ, face painting, no cost watermelon samples, and more.
The BYI Marketplace is a project of Black Yield Institute within the organization’s People’s Food Production and Distribution initiative area. The Marketplace aims to increase the availability of healthy, affordable, and culturally appropriate foods and other goods in areas where they are desired.
The BYI Marketplace specializes in fresh, frozen, and shelf stable food items and other products from local and black farmers, producers, creatives, and other providers. The Marketplace couples with organizing tactics in order to establish other projects like food delivery programs, community farms and community food cooperatives.
The BYI Marketplace is an active solution to food apartheid that creates an experience leading to further involvement in movement work toward Black Land and Food Sovereignty.
