Residents raise $30,000 to bring first grocery store to Alabama neighbourhood in 70 years
After nearly 70 years without a grocery store, Birmingham's Fountain Heights neighbourhood has opened the We All Eat Market. Developed by a local farming cooperative, the $1 million project received $30,000 in grassroots contributions and $150,000 from the city. The market will sell locally grown food, support small farmers and offer discounts to eligible customers.
