STOREFRONT IN COLOMBIA.
THESE WORKERS ARE PREPPING MEAL
KITS FOR FOLKS ALL OVER HOWARD
COUNTY.
WE SAW ME.
OKAY.
IT’S IN EIGHT LOCATIONS.
YOU ORDER IT ONLINE.
IT HAS TWO DINNERS A FAMILY OF
FOUR.
ANYONE IN THE COMMUNITY CAN
PARTICIPATE IN IT AND THEN WE
ALSO SUBSIDIZE IT FOR THOSE IN
NEED THOSE WHO QUALIFY CAN GET
REDUCED PRICE OR FREE MEAL KITS.
THE PROGRAM HAS GROWN 30% SINCE
THE PANDEMIC MAKING IT IMPORTANT
NOW MORE THAN EVER.
THAT’S WHY THEY ARE EXCITED TO
HAVE THIS NEW SPACE TO PREP
MEALS.
THE FRONT AREA WILL SOON BE A
STORE WITH FRESH MEATS AND
PRODUCE FROM LOCAL FARMS IN THIS
AREA YOU REALLY THERE’S NOTHING
WALKING THAT THE COMMUNITY CAN
WALK TO FOR FRESH MEATS AND AND
VEGETABLES SO IT’S A BIG DEAL
AND ESPECIALLY IN A COMMUNITY
WHERE THERE ARE A LOT OF
INDIVIDUALS THAT DON’T HAVE THE
ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION THE
STORE IS LOCATED IN THE LONG
REACH VILLAGE IN COLUMBIA.
IT WAS 80% VACANT TWO YEARS AGO,
BUT NOW THE COUNTY IS BREATHING
NEW LIFE INTO THE AREA.
NOT ONLY WELCOMING THE ROVING
RADISH, BUT WE’VE WELCOMED THE
MARYLAND AFRICAN MUSEUM OF ART
AND SO MANY OTHER WONDERFUL
ARTIST FOOD PLACES
ENTREPRENEURSHIPS.
THE ROBING RADISH STORE WILL BE
OPEN TO EVERYONE AND MAKE FRESH
NUTRITIOUS FOOD ACCESSIBLE TO
MORE PEOPLE THE MEATS AND THE
PRODUCE WILL BE REASONABLY
PRICED OR THEY WON’T BE BE
SUBSIDIZED AT THIS TIME AND
WE’RE HOPING BY THE END OF THIS
MONTH TO OPEN THE STORE AISLE.
WE’RE WORKING RIGHT NOW TO
FIGURE OUT WHAT THE BEST HOURS
WOULD BE SO THE COMMUNITY CAN
ACCESS THE STORE FOR MORE
INFORMATION ON THE ROVING
RADISH.
