UNO documentary: Hollygrove Market

What: Gert Town vegetative hub Hollygrove Market works to connect New Orleanians with local farmers and their products. The uniquely modeled market establishes the connection between local consumer and producer in such a way that allows shoppers to put fresh, seasonal fruits and veggies on the table at a moderate price point and farmers to sell their crops for fare wages outside of a traditional farmers market. But Hollygrove is about more than just the produce.

Film by: UNO student and filmmaker Cassady Brown
