✨ What an unforgettable evening at Omakase for a Cause: A Chef’s Choice Evening Benefiting Ripe for Revival! ✨

A heartfelt thank you to Chef James Sumpter of Rice and River for creating an incredible Omakase dining experience. Through his creativity, talent, and generosity, guests enjoyed a truly memorable evening while helping support Ripe for Revival’s mission to increase access to fresh food, support local agriculture, and strengthen communities through food.

We are also deeply grateful to our sponsors for making this event possible:
🌟 Omakase Presenting Sponsor: Washington Regional Medical Center
🍣 Signature Roll Event Sponsor: P&G Manufacturing, Inc.
🏡 Venue Sponsor: Rice and River & The Mulberry House
💙 Event Sponsors: McKeel’s Jewelers and East Coast Excavation

Because of the support of Chef James and his team, event sponsors, attendees, and community partners, proceeds from this special evening will help us continue to Revive Communities through Food.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, shared a meal, and invested in our mission.

This week, you’ll find peaches, red potatoes, sweetpotatoes, onions, apples, cabbage, oranges, collards, purple tomatoes, and more on the Mobile Market.

We’re especially excited to feature locally grown collards from Burch Farms in Faison, helping bring fresh, North Carolina-grown produce straight to our communities.

When you shop the Mobile Market, you’re doing more than filling your cart with healthy, affordable food—you’re supporting local farmers and helping us continue our mission of connecting farm excess with food access.

Reviving Communities through Food means more than what’s on the plate. It starts with farmers who grow our food, continues through the support of our community, and comes full circle as neighbors shop to nourish their families.

Together, we're creating a healthier, stronger community—one meal at a time. ❤️🥕

A few of our Mobile Market stops have moved to different days of the week. Be sure to check the updated schedule so you know when and where to find us!

The Mobile Market is open to everyone and stocked with fresh produce, local foods, and plenty of community connection. 💚

A special thank you to our community partners and sponsors who help make these markets possible.

🥕🍅 The Mobile Market is for EVERYONE! 🍓🥬

You don't have to be experiencing food insecurity to shop with us. In fact, when you choose to purchase your fresh, local produce from the Mobile Market, you're helping create a stronger, healthier community for all.

When you pay the full price—or even round up your purchase—you are helping make fresh food more accessible for neighbors facing food insecurity. At the same time, you're supporting local farmers and ensuring more North Carolina-grown produce stays in our communities.

Fresh food. Stronger communities. Support for local farmers, growers and producers.

That's what we call a win-win-win. ❤️

Happy Birthday to our Founder, Will Kornegay ! 🎂🎉

We wish you a day filled with joy, laughter, and time spent with those who matter most.

(and happy birthday Jenny Kornegay Yanni !!)

Produce & Grower Spotlight: Pace Family Farms’ Cucumbers 🥒

Grown locally by Pace Family Farms, these fresh cucumbers are part of Ripe for Revival’s efforts to connect surplus farm-fresh produce with communities through our Mobile Market program.

Pace Family Farms is a family-owned farm committed to sustainable agriculture, quality produce, and building meaningful connections between the farm and the community. By partnering with local farms like Pace, we’re creating a win for farmers, families, and our community.

A special thank you to one of our dedicated board members for facilitating this partnership and helping strengthen connections that make this work possible.

It’s a perfect example of our mission in action—bridging the gap between farm excess and food access.

🚚🥕 Jones County, we're on our way!

The Mobile Market is for ALL ages 🍎🥒💚

We loved welcoming some special visitors to our Station Square location this week! Students from Laying Down The Foundation Tutoring Service, led by Miss Lakeisha Greene, visited the Mobile Market to shop for healthy snacks like apples and cucumbers.

Moments like these remind us that learning about healthy eating, shopping on a budget, and where our food comes from can start at any age.

Have a group of students — from youth to adults — interested in agriculture, nutrition education, smart shopping tips, or learning more about food access? Let’s connect!
