Programs That Support Health, Farms, and Families
Freshlist partners with healthcare providers, nonprofits, and public institutions to build stronger, healthier communities through equitable access to fresh, local food.
How It Works
Identify Participants
Healthcare providers or community partners prescribe or refer patients to receive medically-tailored produce boxes.
Source & Build Boxes
Freshlist designs seasonal boxes filled with locally grown food from our network of Carolina farmers.
Deliver & Support
Boxes are delivered to patients’ homes or community sites, with ongoing communication to ensure a seamless experience.
"I just wanted to let you know how much [my patient] is appreciating the harvest boxes. Each time he has received one he talks about the fresh produce and how much he is enjoying it, corn on the cob, fresh blueberries, etc. He told me earlier this week that he had peaches in his box. He said he has never had a fresh peach before as well as never had access to fresh produce like he has been receiving.
I hope you realize how much of a difference you are making in so many lives! Thank you!
