The Guilford County Department of Health and Human Services received a $99,987 National Food Insecurity Nutrition Incentive (FINI) grant. The Mobile Oasis Farmers Market project is a collaboration between Guilford County’s Division of Public Health, Vision Tree CDC, East Market Street Development Corporation, the City of Greensboro’s Parks and Recreation Department, Guilford County Cooperative Extension and the UNCG Department of Communication Studies.
