The Root’s Weekly Route

Farm-Fresh Produce on Every Plate

Every Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday

Our mission is to increase equitable access to fresh, healthy food grown on local farms and to provide nutrition education in underserved communities.

The Rollin’ Root is a food truck stocked with seasonal fruits, vegetables, and dairy products from the farmers market.

A story of the Rollin' Root and the power of community-driven equitable food access that lifts up organic farming practices.

AIM’s goal is to ensure that all members of our community have access to fresh fruits and vegetables, regardless of transportation or economic barriers.

AIM sources 100% of products directly from local farmers that participate at AIM’s farmers markets. All products are offered for sale at affordable price points and remain competitive with local grocery store pricing.
