Finding affordable, healthy and culturally appropriate foods is an increasing problem in some towns and suburbs around the country.But as reports, a new initiative is helping put food on tables in Melbourne's north and combat growing food-security issues.
The market is an offshoot of the Community Grocer in the suburb of Carlton, which provides public-housing residents access to affordable and healthy food.
Fawkner has been chosen to trial a concept which could roll out around the state.
The market was established to target low-income families and newly arrived refugees in an attempt to combat food-security issues.
