TULSA, Oklahoma - Food On The Move, a mobile food initiative created to combat hunger and food deserts in Tulsa, is planning for future growth.
The non-profit is entering its sixth year of providing fresh produce and food to areas without grocery stores and access to fresh produce. And it could be its most exciting year yet.
Food On The Move Founder Taylor Hanson told News On 6 they are working to build a permanent location called “Food Home.”
It's in the early stages, but he said it would include a space for growing and selling fresh produce as well a distribution center for local farmers.
“It's a project that's going to be working on urban agriculture, training and educating, working with partners on a model for a grocery store that can then be within the community as well as on site, specifically at our location; ultimately helping to connect local growers and distributors of produce throughout Tulsa,” Taylor said.
