The Bulb is a donation-based and nonprofit mobile farmers market. Our mission is to provide fresh produce that is grown by local farmers, as well as produce rescued from area grocery stores, to food insecure communities in and around Charlotte. Our “take what you need, give what you can” motto means to create a barrier-free environment that promotes accessibility for all people.
Our vision is that together with local farms, grocery stores and community organizers, we are working to create a world where fresh and nutritious food is a right and not a privilege, while seeking social justice through affordable and attainable education and wellness.
Volunteer with us! From individuals to families, small groups, and corporate outings, there are lots of opportunities to get involved - check out our NEW Volunteer SignUp page at https://bit.ly/TheBulbVolunteering
