New podcast episode is now available! Check out Season 2, Ep.3: Where There’s a Will, There’s a Way - Good Food Entrepreneurs, showcasing two food business journeys in the Good Food District.

In this episode of Project: Good Food, we’re focusing on what it takes to not only establish a food business in the Good Food District, but the work and motivation needed to make it thrive. The guests featured in this episode share the same passion for their work, mission to provide healthy food that fills a specific need, and commitment to relationship-building within the community.

Hosts Brandon S. Johnson and N. Diane Moss are joined by Nancy Juarez, owner and founder of Feshería, a well-established healthy eatery with four brick and mortar locations in San Diego, as well as Candi Gee and Charaun Allen, co-owners of Dru Juice, an up-and-coming juice business making waves on the local food scene.

We’re excited for this upcoming new season of podcasts, and we hope you join us as we explore food sovereignty, justice, and equity building through urban agriculture and good food accessability.

As we wrap up October, we still have a limited amount of watermelons available for customers this week, red and yellow flesh versions.  This will probably the last watermelons of the season.  Other highlights on the People’s Produce MFM truck this week are the Granola snacks made exclusively by students from Morse High School and microgreens compliments of Noura who is one of our hyper-local partners. 

Lastly, we want to give a shoutout to a newly formed juice business in the community named Dru Juice () who have been purchasing fruit from Project New Village to make their products.  If you go to the Lemon Grove Farmers Market, be sure to sample their delicious juice!

The shutdown isn’t just politics — it’s parents skipping meals so their kids can eat.
It’s seniors choosing between food and medicine.
But together, we can change that.
San Diego takes care of its own.
