Store program. They really enjoy the healthy recipes they
can make with our fresh products. I’ve increased my
profits through the program, thanks to my growing
produce sales! It’s a great program that brings many
benefits to my store and my community.”

What is the state of food in Camden?
The food insecurity rate in Camden is around 65% and the childhood obesity rate is around 40%. Most
residents rely on corner stores or food pantries for groceries as there is only one grocery store in the city.1
