The Market at Good Sam is a seasonal farm stand on the Westside of Atlanta that sells fresh, naturally grown fruits and vegetables from the health center's own 1-acre urban farm, plus pantry staples, at very affordable prices. It accepts cash, credit, and SNAP/EBT, and doubles the value of SNAP/EBT so your food stamps buy twice as much produce.

The website, phone, and address on this record belong to Hosea Helps (founded 1971), not Communities in Schools — this listing appears mislabeled. Hosea Helps runs a Care Center in southwest Atlanta that gives out free emergency groceries, clothing, toiletries, and baby items, and helps people apply for SNAP, Medicaid, and Medicare. Staff also screen families for help with rent, utilities, transportation, deposits, and emergency shelter.

Unearthing Farm & Market is a nonprofit urban farm on a once-vacant lot between the Edgewood and Kirkwood neighborhoods, where they grow organic vegetables, fruit, herbs, and flowers. They run a pay-what-you-can farm stand where no one is turned away for lack of money, accept and double SNAP/EBT, and keep a free community fridge stocked with fresh food. The farm is also an open green space where neighbors can gather, volunteer, and connect.
