A mobile grocery store is planned to make stops in West Side neighborhoods as early as November.
“The West Side of Rockford is severely under-served,” said Montez Soliz, mobile grocery store coordinator for the nonprofit Farmers Rising.
People can come into the mobile grocery store and get meat that is locally sourced.”
Even though this is Farmers Rising’s first foray into a mobile grocery, Soliz said it is taking cues from other moving grocery stores around the country.
Milwaukee is on its third trailer; St. Louis, its second; and Little Rock is putting $1 million into a mobile grocery.
