"Traditional food banks and free grocery centers often give pre-bagged packages or operate in a farmers’ market-style setting, restricting consumers’ options and variety. In stark contrast, the District 10 Community Market offers a dignified shopping experience for locals, who can choose from aisles stocked with staples such as milk, eggs, fresh veggies, tortilla chips, and canned beans. The only distinction from a traditional supermarket is the lack of a cash register."
