The Veggie Van

Home » What We Do » Veggie Van

Veggie Van BagsThe Veggie Van is our answer to the challenges of access to fresh, whole foods. We partner with a variety of organizations to deliver affordably-priced fresh foods to sites around Columbus without ready access to fresh foods and produce.

The Veggie Vans deliver pre-packed bags of fruits and vegetables (sourced from Ohio farms and organic whenever possible) to families through schools, community centers, Head Start facilities, and other locations. 

Our Veggie Van is equipped to accept EBT (Food Stamps) as well as credit cards and cash payments. A typical Veggie Van bag weighs around 14 lbs and costs $15.00.

Every bag comes with a newsletter describing recipes and health tips; and every pickup site has a live cooking demonstration and tasting using the items from that week's bag.
